Is the library able to be open?

The article does not say how old the driver is. I'm guessing a person who is 70s, 80s, 90s should have the driver's license removed.

The library is a "safe route to school" with many students using the front of the library as a bike highway (often to the consternation of elderly library patrons) as well as an after school hangout. This was prime time for kids to be about.
I think it is a given that we are very lucky that nobody was hurt in this. Pleased that the driver and occupant were not seriously hurt. Pleased that they didn't hurt anyone else.

@Green Gables
I could guess someone in their mid-20s texting with equal likelihood of being correct :) Down with ageism, up with facts
