A driving instructor may need a remedial course after crashing through the front wall of the Community Driving School in Lakewood, Colorado on Tuesday.

A photo posted on Twitter by the Lakewood Police Department shows an SUV almost all of the way inside of the business after smashing through the front wall, directly under a large sign that reads “Learn to Drive.”

Police said several people were able to dive out of harm’s way, and only one person suffered a minor injury.
