An elderly motorist drove a car to the end of a pier at Montrose Harbor late Tuesday, leaving the car teetering over the edge, a Chicago Fire Department spokesman said.
The driver, an elderly woman, was safely removed from the Volkwagen Jetta and didn't fall into the 36-degree lake water, authorities said.
The Jetta was similarly rescued without plunging into the harbor, Fire Department spokesman
We had no idea you could still get out that far on the piers. We'll have to remember that next time we go smelting.
