I hate that sound, and was probably 50 feet from it this morning. No idea what happened but a women in a lexus sedan pulls into a parking spot on a corner at our health club and she just slams into a Lexus SUV in the adjacent parking lot and continues forward until her front end slams into one of those ginormous 8 foot parking lot snowpiles in front of her. She went up pretty far, so she had to have been going pretty fast.

I thought maybe it was an older person who had a stroke or some damn thing, but she was fine. Don't know if she hit a wet patch, foot slipped off the pedal, or what.

Hate hate hate that sound.

meh, it was two Lexuses (Lexi?) hit. No damage done. Just two [expletive] cars hopefully removed from this world.

I was relieved too when I saw that it was two Lexus'. Could you have been much worse.

It was so bizarre though. She was just parking her car and she just smashed into the side of one and up the snowbank. I still can't get over it.

If I'm thinking "this person should pull their head out and drive like they know how" it's 95% likely to be a lady in a Lexus or a man in an Audi. I can't explain it, it just ends up that way.
