i think this is the worst footage of its kind that i've seen since the "sua" incidents gained notoriety

may cctv angle ba na kita na tumapak siya ng brakes ?

So what is the possible explanation for the forward and reverse? I thought it was just a SUA going forward but the driver kept on repeating it going back and forth.

The driver was finding ways.

1 dead, 6 injured after SUV crashes into QC bank branch | CNN Philippines

According to a police report, the suspect was reversing the Fortuner outside the bank when he bumped into a parked vehicle behind him.

He then tried to stop and move forward. But instead of stepping on the brake pedal, he pressed his foot on the accelerator, suddenly propelling the Fortuner straight into the bank.

He lunged forward and reverse a couple more times after hitting the bank counter the first time. It seemed to look like he tried to shift to Neutral, overshot it and selected Reverse, then tried to correct it but overshot again and selected Drive.... all this time with one foot on the gas.

He was confused, panicked, and potentially DUI/DWI.

He suddenly got amnesia and forgot to pull his foot away from the gas pedal? so stupid. I understand some mistakenly depress the gas pedal thinking it was the brake pedal but this one is a totally different scenario.

in my opinion,
he kept panicking and stepping on the wrong pedal and shifting to the wrong slot?

i don't know,
can you put it in reverse without stepping on the break pedal?
and can you shift it out of reverse, without stepping on the break pedal?

If from P, you need to step on the pedal and press the shift knob to change gears. From reverse naman to other gear, just need to press the shift knob. That's how our Honda behaves tho, not sure for others. 57 na rin pala yung driver.
