A teenager with a learner’s permit made a classic driving mistake - hitting the gas pedal instead of the brake, then drove right into a swimming pool!
A diver from West Metro Fire Rescue attached a tow line to the fully submerged vehicle, enabling a tow truck to haul the car out of the pool. The teen driver and adult chaperone got out of the car safely, but the teen received a citation from Lakewood Police for careless driving.
