as i was walking back from lunch, an suv ran into a popeyes chicken (like a KFC)...heres the write up in the chicago tribune

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/l...ck=1&cset=true

scared the sh|t out of me when all of a sudden you see an suv ram into the popeyes store front

it was like WWIII after it happened. there were like 15 cops, 3 ambulances, and a fire truck...and countless news ppl. i didnt get a picture of the accident, but i will get a picture of what it looks like tomorrow...

one of our laborers was in the restraunt when the suv hit. he was standing at the register, and was like.."i saw it comming, and didnt know what to do. so i just stood there" i saw him exit after the svu rammed the store front.

Some time ago some old timer had a stroke at the wheel and rammed into some guys garage (road was curved). When they pulled it out the whole front on the house collapsed along with the garage, good thing they had the people out of the house. I'm pretty sure that guy had his liscensed revoked due to illness which goes to show the reason.

About a year ago, i was sitting in the parking lot of a donut shop when an SUV tried to beat a red light and ended up getting side swiped by a honda. Scary stuff!
