78-year-old woman in Zakliczyn damages six cars while parking
Viral footage shows the vehicle hitting two bollards before accelerating in reverse; the driver was not hurt.
A 78-year-old woman in Zakliczyn, Poland, damaged six parked cars with a single parking maneuver, according to widely circulated footage from September 16, 2026.
The video shows the car first striking two protective bollards. The driver then panicked and, while the vehicle was in reverse, unexpectedly accelerated; that sudden movement sent the car backward into several neighbouring vehicles.
Six cars were reported damaged in the incident. The woman was not injured.
Sequence of events captured on video
The clip, which spread rapidly on social media, captures the short chain of events from the initial contact with the bollards to the subsequent collisions with other parked vehicles. A social-post caption read: "Video: 19jarek98 pic.twitter.com/CgyX7S74dg".
Local authorities have not been publicly reported to have released further details about responsibility, insurance claims or the exact extent of vehicle damage.
The footage drew attention because all six cars were struck during one brief parking attempt, underscoring how quickly a routine manoeuvre can escalate when a driver panics.
