Thanks for the post, OP! I read about the story, but wasn't aware it was a 335.

Is it possible that she mistakened the gas pedal for brake pedal and slammed into the classroom from her parking spot??

Yes, but can the car carry enough momentum to slam through a wall?

It looks like she needed some speed to go through the wall like that, and if she was in fact going that fast, i dont see any skid break marks before the wall so I'm guessing she didn't even try / couldn't stop before hitting that wall. =/ Saw this on the morning news too lol.

so yeah the chart may be accurate but it doesnt reflect the amount of incidents for women vs men.

+1

that chart is absolutely useless if you are trying to assess driving skill...

men just tend to take more risks than women.
