A driver in China plummeted down a 13-foot-tall ridge last week after she forgot her car was in reverse gear.
The accident took place in Chongqing, south-west China, on February 18, reported Huanqiu, an affiliation with the People's Daily Online.
Luckily there were no passersby when the incident occurred. The woman, who reportedly had recently passed her driving test, escaped the accident unhurt.
Damaged: The woman managed to make it out mostly unscathed after she accidentally put the car in reverse
According to reports, the woman, who remained unidentified and was reportedly 38 years old, didn't realise her Volkswagen was in reverse gear.
As a result, she broke through the steel railing on the edge of the ridge and tumbled off the side of the platform.
Pictures emerged from the Chinese media show the brown car was completely damaged in the accident.
However the driver escaped uninjured.
Luckily there weren't any pedestrians underneath at the time of the incident.
This isn't the first case of this in China.
In 2015, a woman careered into a salon while trying to reverse into a parking space. The car caused considerable damage to the salon. The shop was closed at the time and the driver escaped unharmed.
In 2014, a man became an internet sensation after accidentally putting his car in reverse and driving over an embankment leaving him suspended in mid air.
Rescue workers had to free the man from his car with a ladder.
