| My mother entered a parking garage and we suspect that the car accelerated as it had done it before. she hit a wall and was killed. she was quite coherent and an experienced driver. she was driving a 1989 bmw 500 series. it was never proven but there was a program on 20/20 where this same thing happened and the driver hit a tree and some children were killed.. have there been other similar reports with bmw? *tr | |||
