Customer Crashes Car Into Texas Quick Lube Shop

A vehicle attempting to enter Brothers Kwik Lube failed to stop, instead running into the building.

Employees of a quick lube in Rusk, Texas, fortunately made it through a potentially dangerous situation unscathed, reports The Cherokeean Herald.

A vehicle attempting to enter Brothers Kwik Lube last Friday failed to stop, instead running into the building.

In photos provided by Cherokeean Herald, what appears to be a black Chrysler 300 can be seen sitting halfway inside the shop, surrounded by debris and wreckage.

Thankfully, no one was injured–though both the vehicle and business sustained significant damage. 

Following the incident, Brothers Kwik Lube made a Facebook post saying that the shop would be closed for the rest of the day.

This isn't the first time a situation like this has occurred at a quick lube shop. Back in January, a customer at a Valvoline Instant Oil Change in Festus, Missouri, also ran through the building after accidentally accelerating instead of braking.
