This just happened five minutes ago. I'm sitting here in the edit bay and then a huge bang shakes the building. I thought they were moving AC units on the roof as I've heard that sound before minus the intensity. Nope, sure enough an elderly person hit the gas when parking in front and drove right in the building just to the right of the front doors. He's ok, albeit a bit shaken, but we have a nice chunck of wall missing now! He managed to swipe another car as well.
The police are here now making a report so I'll see if I can nab a pic once the dust settles and things calm down. I don't want to make him feel worse than I'm sure he already does.

One of our Customer Service Reps up front snapped a quick pic. The glass doors are just to the left of the new hole.
I really do feel bad for the gentleman and nobody wants to see anyone lose their independence BUT this guy does not need to be on the road. If you panic when parking and stomp the gas instead of the brake you have no business being behind the wheel.
