Just A Wee Bit Confused

A German woman is claiming she mistook a subway entrance for the entrance to a parking structure. She drove her car right on in and promptly got it stuck on the stairs.

The 52-year-old drove her Volkswagen Beetle across the pavement in central Duesseldorf and into the entrance where it ground to a halt about five steps down, police said.

Police estimated the damage at around 1,500 euros ($2,000).

The story about thinking it was a parking lot is made up, of course. She actually got a bit confused. She was trying to help the environment by taking mass transit. Unfortunately, she didn't quite grasp the concept that she should take mass transit instead of, not with, her car.
