Narrative

I was trying to reverse the car from my Garage. I turned on the Engine and put the vehicle in Reverse Gear. The vehicle just zoomed out of the driveway leaving me without the ability to control it and hit a tree on a neighbor's house and stopped. Then I tried to bring the Car into the Garage by engaging the Drive Gear. Again, the vehicle zoomed into the Garage, hit a few objects in the garage and stopped. At that point I just turned off power and walked out. I took pictures of the damaged parts. At that time, I only noticed damage to the Rear on the Driver Side and the front on the Driver Side. When a tow-truck came a couple of days later, I noticed damage on the Front on the Passenger side also. When the incident happened , the street was empty and luckily no one (including me) was hurt n
