KwaZulu-Natal: At 12H19 Saturday afternoon, Netcare 911 responded to a collision on Umhlanga Rocks Drive in Durban North.
Reports indicate that an elderly female driver lost control while trying to park, pressing the accelerator in the process.
The vehicle climbed up the pavement, through the passage, then coming to rest on a stairway.
When medics arrived on scene, both the driver and her elderly passenger had fortunately only sustained minor injuries.
On closer inspection of the car, a metal railing had penetrated through the lower portion of the windscreen, narrowly missing the driver.
Both occupants from the car, and a member of the public who was in the passage when the incident occurred, were assessed, however declined ambulance transportation to hospital.
