Police quickly determined there was no intent to harm the president.

“It was a horribly timed mistake,” said Lisa Cox, with the Springfield Police Department. “It’s like the opposite of winning the lottery.”

Local police and Secret Service officers questioned the woman and a passenger, before releasing them both unharmed, Cox said.

In a statement, the Secret Service said an investigation revealed the vehicle “experienced a total failure of its braking system.”

There are several things you can do if the brakes fail tho a lot of people especially women would not think of them.

You can scrub off speed by weaving the car back and forth. Downshift. Of course the mechanical brake. Try to hit something not deadly but which will still slow you down. That does not include large trees.

I do not believe it. Brakes or no brakes; I don’t see that car making it through that ditch without gas pedal being applied. I think the car would have been stuck in the ditch.

Pop these coordinates into Google Maps : 37.239451, -93.248862

So the perp's vehicle was tucked in the woods, parked illegally, on a spillway into a reservoir, where the concrete slopes toward the water, when the brakes fail, and the vehicle rolls uphill toward the POTUS, with enough force to damage the vehicle, rendering it incapacitated ... Right ... I have a bridge to sell, too.

I watched the video of Trump's motorcade. That was no accident, or maybe as much an 'accident' as Michael Hastings driving his Mercedes into a tree.

Can’t the NSA and CIA basically remote control newer cars?

What they have NOT explained is why these two women were in a car that was parked in a WOODED AREA.

That’s pretty good driving by hillbilly standards, and a car in above-average state of repair.

Wow...yeah watching both videos and looking at where it was on google maps there was no way this was an accident. The car was where it shouldn’t have been. It emerged JUST as POTUS limo was passing. Looked to me like it was going full force and luckily they miscalculated the dip...probably ripping the brake line and/or other damage.

The Deep State is testing to see how close they can get a car bomb to Trump’s motorcade.

ON second look it appears that they probably were in the Bass pro call center parking lot, lost their brakes, and came out of the woods down the road from the retention pond or whatever it was. But wow...
