When our beloved Peet’s at Lyon Village took a car through the window earlier this year we took our medicine. Accidents happen, right? However, anyone that has been to that location and has seen where the car entered the store may wonder HOW exactly it happened, but I digress. It’s been repaired, no one was injured. Press on.
Well, Sacramento, it’s time to officially send out a “WTF!” now that our favorite burro spot, La Fiesta Taqueria, has taken one on the chin.
Surveillance video from inside the business shows two customers exiting the building through the front door less than five seconds before the car slammed through it from the opposite direction. The car ended up completely inside the building, coming to rest after hitting the counter near the cash register …
The La Fiesta Taqueria boarded up the new hole in the building Sunday evening and will remain closed for about 10 days.
People suck.

What, are we trying to go for Most Cars Crashed Into Restaurants of 2009? Is THAT what they think will put us on the map? How many mexican restaurants and coffee joints (because Starbucks and Dos Coyotes got hit on the same day a few weeks ago, if you recall) must be vehicly mauled before Sacramento finds another claim to fame?

According to an interview on KCRA with Jose Cortes, owner of La Fiesta, the woman driving the car is 73 years old and she said that this is the THIRD TIME THAT SHE HAS DONE THIS.
Ummmmm, can someone do something about this?
