Pedestrians Struck By Car At Aberfoyle Park

A learner driver will be fined after colliding with two pedestrians in a shopping centre car park at Aberfoyle Park today.

Police and emergency services were called to the Hub Shopping Centre, Hub Drive, Aberfoyle Park just after midday on Saturday 12 July by reports of a crash.

A vehicle lurched forward while parking and collided with two pedestrians.

The pedestrians were knocked to the ground and both sustained minor injuries and grazes. One of the pedestrians, a man aged in 70s, was taken to hospital as a precaution.

The Holden Commodore sedan also sideswiped a car parked alongside it and struck the chicken shop.

The driver, a 20-year-old man from Old Noarlunga, only holds a learner's permit and did not have a qualified supervising driver present.

Neither he, nor his young passengers, were injured in the crash.

The driver is expected to receive an expiation notice for failing to maintain proper control of his vehicle and breaches of his learner's permit conditions.

The Holden was towed from the scene.
