A bystander looks shocked at the damage to Opteon in Castray Esplanade. Picture: LEIGH WINBURN
WORKERS at a Hobart office are recovering from the shock of seeing a Toyota Camry reversing into their reception area.
The vehicle's driver, who had been working on a building site nearby, is believed to have suffered a medical condition while moving his vehicle on Castray Esplanade, near Salamanca Place, about 12.30pm today.
Witnesses say the sedan suddenly reversed at high speed, smashing through Opteon Property Group's glass frontage and stopping just centimetres from the reception desk.
Opteon director Charles Brothers said it was a big relief none of the 30 staff members had been injured.
"Luckily our receptionist was out on her lunch break at the time," he said.
"It sounded like a bomb going off.
"It's just a good thing no one was in the boardroom or reception."
The driver was taken to hospital for treatment as his builder colleagues quickly went to the business's aid.
They removed the broken glass and twisted metal and boarded up the frontage so staff could get back to work.
