Volvo Rolls over 27 Viewers at Auto Auction
Is Volvo doing its impression of a Toyota? Perhaps this car was having an identity crisis and thought it was a Camry. 27 viewers were injured earlier this week, when a Volvo 960 at Blue Ridge Auto Auction in Georgia abruptly shot foreword into the crowd. The 1995 model was up for grabs when the gas pedal reportedly stuck. No charges are being filed against the person behind its wheel.
“According to Gilmer County sheriff’s investigators, 27 of the 100 or so people in the crowded building were injured, six of which were airlifted to nearby hospitals. At least one patient reportedly remains in critical condition and three were treated for their injuries and released…The final cause of the accident is still under investigation, and police are saying it will likely be a few more days to determine whether or not the accelerator was stuck open”
