We’ve had wonderful nights at the Carlsbad Inn (thanks to termites) and we love rolling over and looking out the window at the parking lot below. But we rolled over in bed, not in a car like “two elderly sisters” did on Monday night, January 4, 2010, according to a story in the North County Times.
The 79-year-old driver apparently had her foot on the gas pedal when she released the emergency brake, causing the car to lurch forward, hit a tree and flip onto its side, said Carlsbad police Lt. Bruce May. . . The crash happened at about 8:35 p.m. on the 3000 block of Carlsbad Boulevard, May said.. . .The driver was taken to a hospital after suffering minor injuries; her 82-year-old sister was not hurt, May said.
The two sisters where apparently on their way to the hospital after a third sister began choking during dinner and was transported by ambulance.

Rough night…Glad they’re okay. My first guess was that Fidel’s portion sizes would be blamed. Whew.
