That happened to me years ago at a Krystals (the South's version of White Castle but not nearly as good). I wasn't driving, I was in the restaurant ordering food and some woman plowed through the side of the building. No one was hurt but took out a huge chunk like in the picture. Apparently she meant to hit the break while parking but hit the accelerator.

Is that to say that White Castle is good???

Also, the article says that the car was parked, and then in the window. I love news reports that clearly tell the story...

I'm curious how that Versa held up when it hit the building, I don't see any parts of the Versa in the picture like a bumper or something like that.

At least the person wasn't hurt, must be the fact it's the highest rated car with the best safety features,

although no safety feature I know of prevents a driver from going through the window of a restaurant.

The followup said the woman was in her mid 40s, and was not identified in the article. The last time this happened in this area, the driver was straight from India and "forgot pedal in which make Toyota go."

The car did not appear to suffer much damage at all in the other photos.
