In an incident on December 11, 2023, in Obninsk, Russia, an elderly woman behind the wheel of an Audi A4 mistakenly pressed the gas pedal instead of the brake, causing a collision with a Volkswagen Polo and subsequently plowing into a public transport stop. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. The Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Kaluga Region revealed that the elderly driver, born in 1955, failed to account for the lateral interval, leading to the mishap. A video circulating on social media captured the moment when the Audi collided with the nearby car and crashed into the bus stop, prompting people waiting at the stop to flee. The regional prosecutor's office has initiated administrative actions against the elderly driver, and measures will be taken to recover the damages caused by the incident.
