Here at Jalopnik, we’re no stranger to automobiles crashing into buildings. Just yesterday, we wrote about Alan Ruck of Ferris Bueller fame crashing his Rivian right into a Hollywood pizza restaurant. Also, a fast search of our web site reveals this one, this one, this one, this one and this one. And that’s solely scratching the floor of our automobiles crashing into buildings protection. So once we say a crash is actually weird, we actually imply it. And sure, this Massachusetts crash actually is weird.
CBS News studies that an out-of-control Honda Fit smashed by way of the entrance of a Marlboro, Massachusetts workplace constructing yesterday not lengthy earlier than employees would have been leaving on the finish of the day. It didn’t simply hit the constructing, both. It seemed to be driving prefer it was nonetheless on a freeway and hit the entrance of the constructing like a bullet. In truth, it was going so quick, it took out a concrete bollard that was presumably in place to forestall this form of factor. If you’re going quick sufficient, apparently concrete bollards aren’t very efficient.
Both the motive force and the passenger have been unconscious when emergency crews arrived, and the passenger was so completely pinned below the dashboard that it reportedly took firefighters greater than half-hour to get them out. In that point, each males regained consciousness. They have been each taken to the hospital, however the passenger needed to be transported by helicopter as a result of his accidents.
A receptionist was reportedly hit with flying glass however selected to not go to the hospital. We suspect she might have been nervous about the price of remedy, however we are able to’t say that definitively.
As for why the motive force was going so quick and why he hit the workplace constructing, police have but to determine that out, and the crash stays below investigation. We’re simply grateful nobody else was significantly damage as a result of a automotive going that quick is extremely harmful.
