She probably thought it was a drive thru.
I’m saying she was in a Buick. Now I’ll go to the site and see if I’m right.
So a kamikaze driver drove into Joy of Tokyo restaurant...
Oh.
Okay
So if it’s an 85-year-old losing control of a sedan, it’s an 85-year-old that crashes through the building, rather than the out-of-contol sedan doing the dirty deed.
But if it’s a clash-of-culture or religion-of-peace mass murder event, then we only hear about the SUV and nothing about the driver?
What do they take us for. Anyway?
My favorite was a elderly lady had to take a driver’s test to prove she was able to drive.
She drove her car into the front of DMV.
“trying to park in front of the restaurant and accidentally drove her car inside”
It seems you always hear the same thing when an old person has an accident. They tried to hit the brake but hit the gas instead. Or they tried to park but drove inside a building instead.
About 40 years ago, I lived in SE Portland near 42nd and Division, where Division takes a one-block jog out of a straight line. There was a little butcher shop on the corner (it’s gone now), and twice in three months eastbound drivers missed the turn and crashed into the storefront. The owner put up a sign saying, “Please Park Outside”.
Toyota Camry. What a shocker. I’ve said elsewhere that olde phartz don’t drive Cadillacs anymore, they like Toyotas.
Time to take Grandma’s keys away.

The cars wheels were squealing she was going so slow!
Poor lady. It didn’t look as if anyone even asked her if she was okay. She will probably lose her license.
When people get to a certain age their driver’s licenses should be renewed on an annual basis instead of multi-year.
My father’s license was renewed for 6 years when he was 87. and he was incapable of safely driving two years later.
