Finally, a crash into a building story that doesn't involve an elderly driver.

"Las Vegas police said fast driving, not fast food, was the culprit."

So...imagine you're standing at the counter, ordering your McMuffin and your cup of McCoffee. You turn around just in time to see a white Honda come crashing through a window and head right towards you.
I think I'd swear off restaurants for the rest of my natural life.

Andie they didn't release the persons age so it could have been an old coot.
Picture is great though.

There's a McD's near me that has a classic Thunderbird convertible parked in it, but I'm pretty sure it didn't get there the same way.

We had a lady drive thru a Starbucks up here in the northwoods, old and was adamantly hopped up on the bean

What a smash. I submitted this story, mainly because I know the area. The driver had to really **** up to pull this off.
And like andie said, this is no brake versus accelator tale. This is just flagrant stupidity.

there is no description of the driver, so we can't guess at the age or gender.
my guess...he hwas hurrying home for his "old fart" medicine.

"Speed was a factor," he said.
Ya think?
