At approximately 3 PM, Tuesday,
July 2, a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500, pulling a new
travel trailer, hit the corner of the Texas
State Bank Drive-In on Tenaha Street, causing
the complete awning to come to the ground.
Luckily, the driver of the Dodge, Mickey
Miller, of Garrison and his 10 year old son
were able to exit their vehicle uninjured.
According to Miller he was circling the bank
to park on the other side when the corner of
his travel trailer caught the corner of the
bank awning. Next thing he heard was a rumble
as the awning started falling against his
driver's side door. Somehow he was able to
unbuckle the seat beat and exit the other side
of his truck as it was falling. Mark Ivy of
Texas State Bank stated that the main lobby
would be open for busines

And had to change his shorts...

Amazing the driver nor the child was hurt, and thank goodness there were no other customers under the canopy.

Damn! Some contractor's in a whole lot of trouble! That thing was no where close to code anywhere. I wonder if that was built by some of that across the border labor. The bank and the contractor should both get nailed for this, somebody way dropped the ball trying to cut corners. What if some soccermom had been under that thing with a van full of kids.

I'm glad the guy is ok.

This video is so full of FAIL, I believe it has now hit EPIC FAIL status.

He looks like he was pulling through the parking lott at a pretty decent clip. If he had slowed down a bit I dont think the entire drive-through would have collapsed on him.
