2. Vehicles of all makes have been driven into buildings with regularity since Day 1

most commonly by elderly or inattentive drivers.

5. I keep telling them to aim for Toyota dealership showrooms, but they won't listen.

2 or 3 one ton cruise control missiles through their plate glass window shielded offices and I bet they'd figure out the problem real quick.
