Car reverses into laundromat at high speed

A car reversing at high speed has ploughed through a US laundromat, injuring six people as they did their laundry.

Three people were seriously injured after the 74-year-old driver of the four-wheel-drive crashed into the shop in New York City.

CCTV of the accident shows the car taking out numerous people before it comes to a halt at the back of the shop.

Police say the elderly man accidentally went into reverse and slammed into the building as he attempted to park his car.
