The Lakewood Police Department said on its X (formerly Twitter) account that one person received minor injuries and several people had to react quickly to avoid the driver who was heading in their direction.
The driver’s actions were a coincidence because he got away with a ticket, the authorities said.
The photo released by police showing the car rammed into the building caused a stir on social media, as the name of the driving school, “Learn to drive,” appeared in large letters next to the wrecked car.
Luckily there was only a minor injury. Several people were able to escape from the danger zone. The driver, a company instructor, was reported for a traffic violation. pic.twitter.com/tJcWTWqfmO

According to the local Denver Gazette, the driving instructor was on his second day at driving school.
“He was a new employee and hadn’t started teaching yet,” driving school owner Steve Rohman told American media. He had never been in a vehicle with a student. He was there to see how the class was going that day.”
Trade has suffered significant damage.
