MYFOXNY.COM - A woman crashed her Toyota Prius into a stone wall in Westchester County Tuesday morning, police said. Investigators said
the 2005 Prius hit the heavy stone wall in Harrison that it also barreled right through.
Police said it all began when the 56-year-old woman was coming out of a winding driveway and then lost control.
The driver told cops that the car suddenly accelerated and would not stop even though she slammed on the brakes.
Right now, there is no way to know for sure what went wrong. That will be up to federal agencies.
Although this particular car was part of Toyota's floor mat recall, detectives said the floor mat had nothing to do with this case.
Toyota issued a statement about the crash: "Toyota is committed to investigating reports of sudden acceleration involving our vehicles.
It's not appropriate for us to comment on specific reports whose causes are under investigation or have not been verified."
