Student Driver Crashes Car Through Front Of Driving School

"[She] did drive through a plate glass window, so that was a fail on the test."

A student driver in Washington state learned the subtle difference between the gas pedal and the brake on Friday when she crashed into a driving school.

Authorities in Bellevue snapped a quick photo of the scene. No injuries were reported in the incident.

Police responded to reports of a car that crashed into a building around 8:30 a.m.

"Unfortunately, that student mistook the gas pedal for the brake, sending the car into the building," Seth Tyler of the Bellevue Police told KOMO.

Police said the student is a woman in her 20s who is new to the country. She was approaching the end of the test when the accident happened.

"She was doing great up until that very last part ... [and she] did drive through a plate glass window, so that was a fail on the test," Tyler noted.
