Emergency services were called to an accident in Oberon St, Coogee early this afternoon.

At around 12:45pm an elderly female had driven off her driveway and into another property which was over a 3 metre ledge.

She was treated by a Doctor who lived in the nearby block of units. Ambulance also assessed her but she did not require treatment.

A Holden ute broke the fall of the plummeting car and sustained minor damage. The owner of the ute “Chris” said the car was cursed.

Fire services remained on standby as the car was winched off its ledge.

Police are investigating the cause of the accident.

A perfect example

This is a perfect example of why the granting of a Driver License should be conditional to an advanced driver training course as a follow up. At some point, retesting should be mandatory. Perhaps at 60 years of age and every five years thereafter.
