Didn't feel like making a new thread at the time, but since this thread has been made. Something I want to share that I witnessed about a month ago.
I was just walking along Fraser St, leaving the Dollar store and then I heard a screaming and a loud BANG.
I looked up and saw this car plow into the side of ScotiaBank, and saw this elderly man on the floor (apparently his wife got hit and was on the other side of the car).
Pretty messed up. Not even sure what caused the driver to end up turning into the building like this.
The eldery couple got taken away on a stretcher, not sure about their condition afterward. I hope they're okay.

A couple years back I was inside Wholefoods off of Cambie St paying when I heard a loud crash. Walked outside and saw a female drivers car up against Wholefoods. Luckily it didn't go through the window and luckily nobody other than the driver was hurt. Spoke to a couple witnesses outside and apparently it came down the street at a highspeed, somehow hopped the curb and literally flew over a car and hit Wholefoods.

To think most SUV's wouldn't even have enough front bumper overhang clearance to make that sort of incline, I'm hugely impressed that the driver of the Bimmer managed this. Horrified, but still impressed.

Note to self..................... window seats are overrated. Keep calm and sit way back.
Then you live to ripe old age like me, LOLOLOLOLOL.
Policeman's job verrrry dangerous. If gunman or cholesterol don't get you, crazy drivers will.

As a crew worked to repair the storefront and tow the car, on-site officers issued a dozen $167 tickets to distracted drivers trying to snap photos of the collision with their phones, he added. |
