Car crashes into building on Leary

Posted by Geeky Swedes on August 12th, 2009

A car plowed through the front of a business at 4012 Leary Way.

It happened just before 6 p.m. Witnesses tell us that the black Honda was speeding towards Fremont on Leary and hit the Land Rover. The Honda ended up in the building. We’re told that there are no injuries.

It appears that the business is Seattle Wheel Service. According to their website they “repair wheels that are bent, broken and otherwise compromised.”

    I think the state of the wheels would fall under the "otherwise compromised" category.

    Just sayin it tends to be be dudes that do this kind of stuff when they drive. I'll bet my lunch money...
  • dilo_makkat
    I walked by after the crash, the driver was a young women, you are a dum-dum.
  • Yea! We all get to split Milo's lunch moneys!
  • Oh. Is that how it works.

    Bummer.
  • dilo_makkat
    P.S. You owe me your lunch money
  • mil0_dakkat
    I happily stand corrected. Unfortunately for you guys, I either pack my own lunch or spend under $5 (but I'll share my Fritos with ya!)

    sounds like another case of "driving while male."
  • BTown

  • AlanBarton
    Milo the man hatin' kat is back on the board! Can't we all get along? Besides, the driver was on their cellphone texting their pitbull.
  • Black_Sheep
    That's on HIS cellphone texting HIS pitbull, correct? (huh?)
  • AlanBarton
    Baa-Baa Black Sheep, are you a hater too? No reference to sex of the driver in the post so not sure why there is all this hostility towards male drivers :)

    Regardless of plumbing that driver should be all washed up.
  • Black_Sheep
    No, I'm not a hater! I was attempting to express confusion regarding the "driving while male" comment. Apparently I was unsuccessful...

    As there was no mention of gender, I'm not sure what at all makes this sound like a case of driving while male.
  • NoraBell
    Oh, come on!
    The full moon has been and gone. There is no more excuse for this crazy driving.
  • chopper_74
    Except that folks tend to drive with their head up their a**.
    No full moon required...
  • Does the business happen to be a mechanic? I googled it, and thats kind of funny, well, not if anyone was hurt, and it's not funny that the business got a car run in through it's doors.

    You know...
  • Hey Buddy! Take a number and sit down!
  • Jeff
    Is it a full moon today??
