Watch: Elderly driver launches vehicle over parked car in spectacular crash

November 10, 2017

A car has been filmed speeding through a parking lot, before launching spectacularly over a parked car in Melbourne, Australia.

The dramatic footage was captured by the dashcam of the parked vehicle which was crashed into by the errant 96-year-old driver outside the Warringal Private Hospital in Heidelberg.

The video has had nearly 500,000 views since being posted to the Dash Cam Owners of Australia Facebook page yesterday.

"Visiting a mate in hospital tonight, thought I'd found a great car park right out front," the Facebook video was captioned.

"Next thing I know my rego is being called over the PA. I go out to find police, fireys and ambulances everywhere.

"Luckily nobody was killed. 96-year-old-driver taken to hospital."

Australia's Nine News reports the 96-year-old driver of the car was taken to Royal Melbourne Hospital with leg injuries, where he remains in a stable condition.
