With the wide spread use of smart phones, texting, and computer screens on car dashboards, that location and close position of the Looney Bin to 40-mph D W Hgwy at that busy spot made it an accident waiting to happen. Every time I drove past it I always think how easy it would be for a car to accidentally drive into this building. Bollards are not enough protection. It could use a couple 5000-lb granite boulders placed out front as well.

Recently, a similar accident happened at Hart's Turkey as well as at other building collisions in N.H. Driving cars seem to cross the center line more now than in the past and one strong reason is the driver is paying attention to their smart phone and not to their driving.
