2.The Man Who Crashed into a Restaurant, then Ordered a Pizza. In January 2013, it was reported that an elderly man got his foot stuck on the accelerator of his car and drove into a Valentino's pizza restaurant, in Lincoln, USA. While other concerned citizens called 911, the man placed an order for a pizza from inside his car! The man's car, a Honda Fit, was the perfect size to fit right through the door of the restaurant. "He seemed very calm and collected. I was amazed," said a bystander. The driver was taken to the hospital as a precaution, but he didn't appear to be hurt or in shock at what had happened.

3.The Car Crash that Actually Saved the Trucker's Life. Car crashes can be tragic, but in this case, it was precisely what saved a man's life. In 2011, Richard M. Paylor, a 55-year-old trucker from Pennsylvania, told city police he was driving the rig west about 9 when he started to choke on a piece of apple and blacked out. The next thing he knew, his truck had smashed through the concrete barrier near Lancaster Avenue. Investigators confirmed the apple was dislodged when Paylor smacked his chest against the steering wheel, and the Police recovered a chunk of apple from the dashboard. "This accident saved his life," said Lt. Madison Winchester. Paylor was treated and released quickly from the hospital.

5.The Woman Who's Car Was So Trashy, it Caused an Accident. In 2007, it was reported how a car crash in West Yarmouth, Massachusetts, USA, led police to the discovery of a filthy car filled to the brim with trash and rubbish. According to police, there was so much trash inside 53-year-old Ann Biglan's Ford Focus, it completely filled the inside from the floor to the ceiling front and back. The copious amounts of trash apparently caused the crash. Biglan told police several old coffee cups and pieces of trash fell onto the gas and brake pedal, which caused her to lose control while backing out of a parking space near the West Yarmouth Post Office.

6.The Car Crash that Crushed the World's Longest Fingernails. Lee Redmond of Salt Lake City, Utah, USA, was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest fingernails in the world --28 feet (8.5 meters) long-- as she hadn't cut them since 1979. She kept the record until 2009, when escaped a four-car pile-up car accident, but lost her nails. She was hospitalised with serious but not life-threatening injuries after being ejected from the seat of an SUV where she was a passenger. "[Her nails] were damaged beyond repair," reported the BBC, quoting Guinness World Records, who also said that Redmond's nails were "a fundamental part of her life and unique character". The 68-year-old won't grow her nails out again, saying it took 30 years the first time and she may not live for another 30.

7.The Man Who Tried to Stop His Car like The Flintstone's but Couldn't. Can you stop your car with your feet like The Flintstone's? It seems you can't. In 2011, the Police Deparment from Roseville, USA, arrested a 24-year-old man who tried to use his feet to brake his moving car and failed, hitting four cars along the way. The Fred Flintstone wannabe, a roofer from Warren, was driving on a suspended license and was cited for Reckless Driving in the incident, in which police said he was completely sober, just "overly tired." He "will face a judge in September, to explain his moronic decision making," said Deputy Chief James Berlin in a statement.

8.The Lady Who Crashed 2 Businesses in 2 Days with 2 Cars. In 2012, 66-year-old Mary Hasselberger was behind the wheel during car accidents occurring at two separate businesses in two days. "Maybe she's getting her brake and accelerator confused," said Sgt. Lou Cammiso, although it doesn't make much sense, considering the suspect was driving two different vehicles. The first accident occurred on Thursday afternoon, when Naperville (IL, USA) police say the woman plowed her Ford Taurus through a wooden fence separating a Dunkin' Donuts parking lot from a private residence. The vehicle barreled into the yard until it hit a tree and a bench. The next afternoon, the woman was driving a rental Buick Lacrosse when she allegedly crashed through the wall of an Eye Care Center, located just three doors down from the site of the first accident. Repairs were estimated at $50,000.

10.The 2-Year-Old Who Drove a Truck Into House. In June 2013, Kathleen and George Williams, from Grayson, GA, USA, came back home to find that someone drove a red pickup truck into their house, and it turned out that someone was a 2-year-old. A neighbor across the street admitted to police that he was unloading the pickup with his toddler in the cab, and the boy managed to put the truck in gear. The vehicle then "rolled down at a fairly slow speed across the street." The crash broke gas and water lines, two windows and left a large hole in the outside wall, but the Williams say they aren't angry with their neighbor because it was only an accident.
