New Spin on "Drive-Thru" Window

Why did the chicken cross the road? Probably to get away from the car barrelling down the sidewalk.

A driver parking in front of a fried chicken shack accidentally hit the gas, shooting the car through the restaurant's storefront and into its dining room, says NBC 4 News.

The accident went down at Popeye's on 16th Street near Lyttonsville Road in Silver Spring during Saturday's lunch hour, NBC 4 News reports. The unidentified female driver was positioning her car in the lot when her foot hit the accelerator instead of the brakes.

The car jumped the sidewalk, smashed through the restaurant's window and stopped in the dining room, says NBC 4 News. No injuries were reported.
