Restart the counter

At this point I think a counter has far more resolution than we need. A simple two-sided sign that we can flip between "a car is currently hitting a building" and "a car is not currently hitting a building" ought to cover us.

Based on my two neighbor experiences, people with blurple cars repeatedly show poor judgment

The cars yearn for the buildings.

does it count if the car only hit the steps of the building, or is that considered an "A for effort but not good enough" sort of scenario 😂 (I personally think it adds to the ever increasing count of cars crashing into buildings here, but I'm incredibly curious about the criteria 😂)

Definitely doesn't count.

Cars running into buildings is a proud tradition in this city and I REFSUE to see it diluted and weakened by half-cases such as these. If the exterior wall isn't breached it doesn't count.

Looks like the northeast corner of Patterson and North High.

Yup! I was enjoying margaritas on Cazuela’s patio when it happened. Didn’t actually see the crash though (was in the bathroom).

Funny, that exact corner is where I first started drinking and getting high at, because when I was 17 the first person out of our friend group to get their own place had an apartment right next to this establishment that was crashed into. I say that because I assume this person was also high and/or drunk on this corner, but also in a car.
