The owners of a collision repair shop were left stunned after a drunk driver crashed upside down into the side of their building.
The GMC Yokon crashed into the Lone Star Collision repair shop in Colleyville, Texas, on Wednesday, Colleyville Police said.
The driver, who has not yet been named, was taken into custody and police say alcohol was a factor in the accident.
No one in the building was hurt, the owners said on Facebook.
However, two people in a car that was hit by the offending vehicle before the collision where injured and taken to a local hospital.

It is not known if the shop will repair the GMC Yokon.[/quote]
Their choice of signboard now has a ring of stark truth to it. Literally.
I had assumed it slid in through the front rather than through the wall. If it did, it'd basically be the way I enter all car repair stores in games.
I can't even begin to explain how disappointed I am that it's a domestic vehicle.
that last little bit in the quote ahaha

Imports aren't heavy enough. They'da just bounced off the wall.

It's a curse and a blessing. Publicity everywhere...
but then you've gotta repair the shop. :v:
Too bad they can't keep it there and build it into the wall as some sort of novelty signage.
If the shop does decide to repair the vehicle, at least it was a short tow to the repair shop.
Also people, another reminder to not drink and drive.
How in the actual fuck does one even do that

If the car was completely fucked, they could probably buy it off the owner instead of scrapping it
Then just fill in the holes with some wood or concrete

or just swap it with a junk car and save money on repairing the whole wall :V
"I'm here to get my car fixed."
Foreign vehicles? Good thing it's an Australian car.
Its like that one small plane that crashed (and got stuck) in a tree next to a flight school. Not sure if it's real but relevant.

It would be really great advertisement for their shop if they repaired it.
i couldnt get the yukon to start but i did get it to turn over
This was an inside job.
Reminds me of how our truck ran out of gas once on a slight slope. The parking break wasn't applied all the way, so when my dad went to walk over to the gas station for some assistance, the truck began to roll back. It went down the hill, ran over a cone, bouncer up the curb and came to a stop right next to a gas pump. Wrong side of the car for the gas cap, but still, it literally rolled down a hill and stopped at a gas station.
I saw something similar to this article too. A GM SUV of some kind was crashed into a ditch right in front of a GM repair shop.
that image looks like a dang cartoon with how clean the hole in the wall is
