But there's no substitute for experience, and the coaching didn't work -- the accelerates out of the spot, dragging the woman with it. The car hit a building and caused"substantial damage," police said. Officers said she admitted having the child drive due to the"confined parking situation."turns as it leaves the parking spot, she's lucky she wasn't crushed between vehicles.
