A STUDENT was left red faced after seemingly mistaking the brake for the accelerator on her automatic silver Mercedes and ending up parked on top of the car behind.
The embarrassing incident happened in Florence Terrace in Falmouth at the weekend and was captured by press photographer Mark Hemsworth.
He said: "I witnessed the aftermath of it. She was trying to park in a parking space and mistook the brake for the accelerator and parked on top of the car behind."
The police were called and a recovery team managed to remove the Mercedes from the top of the blue Saab.
The student was uninjured in the incident nursing only her damaged pride. The damage to the vehicles is unknown.
