Our business is now a drive-thru

#1 Postby CajunMama » Wed Apr 20, 2011 6:16 pm

Our business was hit this afternoon. The guy went through the front, out the side and traveled down the parking lot damaging 7 cars. We had only one employee go to the hospital and she is ok. She was pulled out of the way of the truck by a customer. Needless to say that customer will be getting her wedding invitations at no charge!!! The guy passed the sobriety test and the police can't do any further testing to find out why he left his lane, crossed over two other lanes and through our building.

Holy cow!

Glad everyone is o.k. Wouldn't have bet the driver would have passed that test though.

I'm so sorry Cajun to read about this. I'm glad that the one worker is alright.

OMG, so sorry. Glad there were no major injuries. Do you also have insurance for business disruption? Hope so. ((HUGS))
