Parking the car I must have hit the gas instead of the brake, the car drove over two curves, made a turn, and in my panic I hit the gas even harder thinking it was the brake. I ended because I hit a tree that stopped the car.

NHTSA ODI report, 2015-01-27

I had an accident recently hitting a tree avoiding a child running into my street. I have injured myself hitting the steering wheel hard. I think my nose was broken and a week later is still bothering me, 2 black eyes.
