pretty fawked up, theyre talking about it a lot over here. just sounded like a chicago thing...but if you closed down the street in chicago youd have 15 cars, few trucks, and at least one CTA bus going through...

Santa Monica Police Chief James Butts Jr. said the driver told officers he couldn’t stop. “His statement is that he possibly hit the gas instead of the brakes,” he said.
wow. I don't think he "accidentally hit the gas instead of brakes" I mean, take your foot of the gas after a couple minutes okay? This guy seems to have a mental problem, loss of hand-eye coordination or something.

Also, I can't believe there was a crowd that wanted to beat him up when he finally stopped. The general public are fuking idiots, good thing I'm not running for political office.
