Woman Flips SUV During Test Drive At A Virginia Car Dealership

There's a terrible stereotype that women aren't exactly the best drivers, and one incident that took place last Friday certainly isn't helping to dispel it.

While taking a Mercedes-Benz SUV out for a spin at a dealership in Arlington, Virginia, a woman suddenly accelerated the brand new vehicle, striking four other cars -- one of which was her own.

In a panic, she then proceeded to turn the wheel at such a sharp angle that the car ended up flipping onto its side, according to WRC.

Luckily for those out on the streets that day, the accident occurred in the Mercedes parking lot.

Unfortunately for both the owner of the dealership and the woman driving the car, the accident occurred in a Mercedes parking lot.

The Arlington County Fire Department was on the scene soon after the incident and no injuries were reported -- well, no injuries except slight bruising to both the woman's wallet and pride.
