Thenews truck bursting through the exterior of 299 Queen Street Westmay not be enough of a landmark for Greater Toronto Area residents, who just can't seem to stop crashing their cars directly into buildings.

Two separate drivers slammed their cars into businesses over the weekend, the latest examples in a worrying trend of careless driving.

Multiple videos emerged on Saturday showing the aftermath of a black sedan crashing through the wall of aTD Canada Trust bank branch in a retail plazaat Bovaird Drive and Brisdale Drive in Brampton.

Sometimes the crashes are entirely intentional, like a theft case from February where a driver smashed into a closed mall using a stolen car in a daring heist.

These represent just a handful of cases from the first eight months of the year. Perhaps the most metaphoric driver-versus-building crash in recent memory was aMay 2022 incidentwhere a driver smashed their car through a bike shop.
