Woman getting driving tips crashes through Target

OCALA, Fla. — A 79-year-old woman who was trying to get her driver's license restored confused the gas pedal for the brakes and crashed through the front door of an Ocala Target store.
 
Police say Norma Joan Brennan's pastor was giving her some driving tips Thursday afternoon when the crash occurred. No one was injured.
 
The Ocala Star-Banner reports that Brennan was given a citation for driving with a license that is suspended or revoked. The pastor was cited for allowing an unlicensed driver to drive his vehicle.
 
Police say Brennan was adjusting the seat while the pastor was giving her driving tips just before the crash.
 
Brennan told police she had been a licensed driver for 50 years before it was taken away for medical reasons.
