A neighbour watched a car fly over a garden before slamming into a garage in Mosgiel yesterday.
Police said they were alerted to a crash in Severn St about 11.15am after an elderly woman appeared to have driven her car into a house, causing damage to the property.
Witness Jamie Hodgson was in her house across the road when she heard a “big bang” from across the road.
Ms Hodgson said the lady, who appeared to be in her 80s, was making a turn from Rentons Rd into Severn St when she accidentally pressed the accelerator instead of the brake.
She “flew over” the garden and hit the garage.
The woman appeared to be fine after the collision. — Allied Media
