At least she appeared ok physically. Mentally I would be running under a rock.

The worst driving I've ever seen. You can see her lurch forward in the car before she even gets to the gate. Clearly has NO CLUE how to drive that car.

Wow! I would have bet money that you couldn't roll a car in that confined a space.

I wonder how they got the car out?

Looks like she stalled a manual at first, then took off and forgot to let go of the wheel. Worst driving I've seen? Nah. That goes to the first driver in that snow video posted on here a week or so ago.

Wow just when I thought it was impossible to flip a car in a 6-7 ft space, I'll hold my thoughs on this women.

Spend a few hours in Orlando sometime. You'll be wishing the drivers there were as good as that lady is.

Looks to me like she hit a metal pole just inside the gate, bent the pole some and it lifted the front of the car as she hit the gas. A combination of errors that would ruin your whole day.
