Nissan GTR crashes into bank
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - A high powered sports car slammed into the VanCity Credit Union branch on Victoria Drive near 40th Avenue this afternoon. The driver was slightly injured but amazingly nobody was hit by the out of control car. Police say speed is a factor in the accident.
One man told News1130 the car stopped right behind him and a police officer told him he's lucky to be alive.
The Nissan GTR remained wedged in the front of the building, over a small flight of stairs, with its front end resting in some bank machines before being towed away.
A woman waiting at a crosswalk says she was just inches away, and had to jump back, when the car came careening into the credit union’s front entrance.
Damage to the building is extensive.
Rumor is that a Honda Civic was turning left and cut the GTR off, causing it to lose control (somehow) and crash.

"Police say speed is a factor in the accident" .... give that officer a promotion. Why are the obvious always quoted? A man is shot in his house 30 times "Police suspect foul play..." NO!!! REALLY ?!?!?!
Maybe when they said "speed" they meant drugs. Looking at the accident I'm pretty sure the guy was speeding somewhat. It doesn't look like he inched up the steps into the bank.
