A Toyota Camry drove away on its own power after colliding with a Tahoe and disabling it in the 1900 block of Knickerbocker Road Friday night.
A family of five in a gold Toyota Camry were leaving Zentner’s Daughter Steak House and made a U-turn on Knickerbocker after realizing they turned the wrong way out of the parking lot.

Meanwhile, a white Chevrolet Tahoe was turning left, southwest bound, out of another private drive on the south side of Knickerbocker.
The driver of the Tahoe said he didn’t see the Camry, and the two vehicles collided in the middle turning lane. “It was fortunate that no one was hurt, especially since the Camry had so many people in it, hitting a large vehicle like a Tahoe,” police said.
