Driver Forgets His Height, Crashes Trailer Into Bank
The statement from the Dallas Police Department on the above incident reveals that the driver and his 10-year-old son escaped unharmed:
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. Mark Ivy of Texas State Bank stated that the main lobby would be open for business while the drive-in is being repaired.

Ouch, I'm sure his insurance company wasn't too happy about that.
