OK, not all Volvo drivers are smart... 200 1987

So I'm driving home from work this morning (I was on night shifts) and I get back into my town and there's a bunch of police cars and flashing lights.
I can see a couple of tow trucks and a crowd of people. As I get closer, I realize they're winching a 1986-7-8 model 240 sedan onto the flatbed.
As I get even closer, I can see that the right front is crunched, and there's minor damage to the hood, grille and windshield. I'm thinking there was a fender-bender, and good, they were in a Volvo, and last, that I know the towing company and I wonder if I can buy it for parts.
Then I see... the restaurant on the corner ... with a VERY large hole punched in the front wall ... and I realize that the car was not in an accident in the intersection- no,no, the car center-punched the building. Looks like it went at least 8 feet into the building.
Put it this way... the car won!
This should be in tomorrow's paper, and I'll post a link.
I can't WAIT to hear this one.
