This happened at Extreme Fitness in Thornhill! Apparently the driver took off and has yet to be caught.

Really bad parking job.
- Thread starter catchin_zzz

they were probably talking on a cellphone and not paying attention...hit the gas instead of the brake.....
If it was my car damaged and I knew about the video. I would put out a BOLO ( be on the look out ) at BMW and high end body shops.
I see, and then you returned the car and flew home, right? Are they still looking for you in the DR? LOL
Gyaos Baltar.
underneath it would. Least scratches on the skid plates etc.
I kind of think it was staged. Both cars it hit were crap......
not enough damage that he'd need to bring it to a shop. probably never get this guy by checking body shops for damaged BMW's.

Why don't they just freeze frame the video, highlight the license plate and zoom in on it, then switch to the "hi-def" image like the do on TV 
, and get the bad guy like that!

could be the quality of the original video just isn't good enough. That stuff you see on tv? Mostly it's just a crock of shit. For example: if the video is shot at 120 x 240 dpi and the licence plate is maybe 3 pixels x 4. There is NO way you can extrapolate that into a clear image like they do on CSI. For example: a licence plate is B1D 48I.....you could have 810 AB1 or any combination thereof. (for that matter, at that size, the plate would just be a square grey smudge)
(and yeah, I just noticed your rollie eyes icon doh)
Busted!
Good News! The person was caught!
From the Toronto Star:
Just a few hours after a YouTube video went viral of a BMW SUV driving up and over two parked cars, a Richmond Hill woman has been charged.
York Regional Police charged Tripta Kaushal, 62, on Wednesday with failing to remain at the scene of an accident. She is to appear in court Dec. 1.
The video has been picked up on websites around the world and been declared one of the world's worst parking jobs.
The driver of the BMW SUV X5 in the Extreme Fitness lot pulled into a space and kept going, up and over two parked cars. One of them belongs to Todd Jamison, systems administrator at the gym, whose voice shook Wednesday when he described how his car was destroyed. The other reportedly was a rental car.
"It sort of sucks," he said. The rogue mini-van backed off Jamison's 2004 Hyundai Elantra and another car, then stopped, paused, backed out of the space and drove slowly out of the lot. The footage, which aired locally on CP24, can be viewed here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Do6pmYfNco0.
York Regional Police had been looking for the hit-and-run driver since the demolition derby Oct. 22.
The damage to Jamison's car was "quite extensive," said York Const. Marina Orlovski and the SUV probably damaged its undercarriage.
Jamison and police had few leads. The surveillance camera at the lot on Yonge Street in Thornhill failed to pick up the licence plate or clearly show the driver or passengers. But Jamison recognized the minivan, said Orlovski.
"You certainly don't see that everyday."

well that actually took a little longer than i thought it would , the problem is that I don,t really suffer from stress.................. i cause it
glad they caught the person.....the gall to simply drive away...probably some snot nosed well to do who thought they were above the law.......
I've noticed a lot of women drivers become confused and retarded when it comes to simple matter of parking their cars.
This woman got nailed because she is a regular customer of this fitness place and an employee of the gym who saw the video knew who the car in question belonged to.

I see her son died of cancer this year, maybe she was medicated?

No. Maybe drunk. Not medicated.
Anyways I go to EF in Thornhill. The parking lot is the most dangerous aspect of your workout. So many idiots in that parking lot it's insane. It's a shitty gym. 90% of the peole are on cell phones from the minute they step into that parking lot until they step back. Never seen a loser gym like EF.
Can't wait til my membership dries up.
