Wow...

First thing that comes to mind is girl in teens or 20s whose parents bought her it and was distracted on her cellphone and hit the gas instead of brakes, freaks out, says 'omg omg omg what do i do' and drives off.

Unless maybe something broke and caused the X5 to leap forward ?!

Hmm like Lexus/Toyota?

What the hell does "viral" mean? I assume it isn't some sort of illness

Glad they found out who was responsible

Here's another article that explains how they caught her:

Quote:

She was identified when an Extreme Fitness staff member, whose own car had been crushed in the Oct. 22 incident, spotted a similar-looking SUV in the parking lot again Wednesday morning and called police.

What's the deal with that face shield stuff?

some sort of new fashion or they plan to rob 7-11?

Or, some sweatshops hire foreign women to do solder works?

Update. Great job by Hyundai. One of the victims car was crushed in the accident, which was paid off last month and Hyundai Canada stepped up and gave him a brand new car.... Great publicity..

Good publicity move on Hyundai.
Honda/Acura will NEVER do that for one of us!

I don't thinking crowding a jail is going to help her become a better driver.

props to hyundai for stepping up! I do agree that honda/acura nor any other manufacturer would have thought of giving a new car to a person if such a thing happened.
