We were there just after. Apparently the driver pushed the accelerator intending to stop. When the car didn't stop, he pushed harder and the FWD climbed up and over the steel bulkhead ~10". I think two men in the car and two dogs. The men got out and a valet attendant jumped in, broke a window and got the dogs out. Nobody hurt. Hope that's accurate. The boat in the slip had just been moved. No damage to boats, docks or people. A minute or two earlier or 10-15 feet left or Right could have been a real catastrophe. People on C Dock, across from Valet put out their lawn chairs to watch the tow truck rescue.
