For reasons that, for now, remain unclear, the motorist lost control of the vehicle, mounted the pavement, drove through and over a roadside safety pillar, continued over the lawn in front of the BNP Paribas building and finished by crashing into a low wall.
The driver was lucky to escape serious injury, suffering a mild shock, while both car and wall took some damage.
Fortunately no other persons were hurt in the accident.
