We’re not sure this is exactly the future of the fast food drive-in, and it’s definitely not the kind of mash-up we’re used to seeing here.

Around noon time today in South San Jose this white 4-door Toyota RAV reportedly smashed into a local Pasta Pomodoro restaurant. These photos seem to apparently (somewhat) corroborate the on-the-ground reports.

Shattered glass was seen across the sidewalk and parking lot. According to SJPD there were no injuries.

An employee at a local postal center said she heard a loud crash.

“It was really loud. This is crazy. Just about a month ago, a car smashed through the sandwich shop a few stores down from Pasta Pomodoro,” she said pointing across the mall. “I’m never sitting at a window table again.”

No word yet on the reason for the crash, although an officer on the scene was heard mentioning a stuck accelerator.

The accident took place at the mall at the intersection of San Felipe Rd. and Yerba Buena Rd. in San Jose.
