Car without brake rolls across Highway 43

Amazingly, no one injured in accident
A vehicle took a risky trip to the gas station by itself July 3.
The driver of a late-model Jaguar sedan parked at the Walmart Neighborhood Market on Highway 43 and apparently forgot to set the parking break of the manual transmission vehicle.
The car rolled down the steep driveway of Walmart, crossed Highway 43, narrowly missing oncoming traffic and crashed into a metal pole at the Chevron gas station across the street.
The pole the vehicle hit protects the gas pumps.
We are very lucky no one was hurt this afternoon, West Linn Sgt. Neil Hennelly said.
