Those in line to get coffee and donuts in the Buckingham neighborhood this morning were met with an unusual sight.
The driver of a white Volvo drove partially down an embankment next to the Dunkin’ drive-thru at 70 N. Glebe Road, becoming wedged between the sidewalk and the restaurant’s driveway. It’s not clear what led to the crash, though the drive-thru line is not typically associated with excess speed.
“I’m not sure what the story is or how the car ended up this way,” said a tipster, who called it an “odd scene.”
No emergency vehicles are seen in the photos above, which were taken around 7:45 a.m.
The Dunkin’ and its drive-thru lane opened in 2017, replacing a former KFC.
