Collision Center

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At midnight, when only stars and headlights were around, a delivery driver heard an eerie voice over the Collision Center’s intercom. ‘Your car is fixed,’ it said calmly, ‘but next time drive slower.’ The delivery driver looked at the intercom in disbelief, but shrugged and went on his way. Months later, standing outside the shop with his friend, he heard the same voice again: 'Hey, your brake lights are on!' Turning around, he saw nobody—and realized his friend was laughing so hard he almost fell off his bike.

2. One night, as a delivery driver pulled up to the Collision Center, he muttered under his breath, ‘I hope they’re open—my package looks like it needs some serious repairs.’ As the mechanic inspected the package, he shook his head and said, 'This thing's seen better days!' Turns out, it was just an old teddy bear from a neighbor's kid who thought it had ridden along for fun.' The delivery driver laughed, realizing his mistake, while everyone in the shop shared a good-natured laugh.

3. One evening, after closing hours, a little boy walked into the Collision Center's empty lobby. He looked around curiously, then pointed excitedly at one of the cars on display. 'Mommy,' he whispered, 'look, it’s like that car from our favorite movie!' Suddenly, an old man appeared from behind the counter and smiled warmly. ‘Ah,’ he said gently, ‘that’s just our newest restoration project—a replica from your mom’s childhood.’ The boy beamed with delight as his mother joined them, laughing softly. ‘It seems we’ve got another fan of classic cars here!’

4. One morning, a delivery driver parked at the Collision Center for a quick break. Curious about the odd object in the parking lot, he picked it up—a tiny toy car, perfectly shaped like the shop’s logo. Smiling, he placed it on his dashboard and drove off. Later that day, while fixing another car, one of the mechanics found an identical toy car under the hood. A regular passing by noticed it too and asked jokingly if they were running a toy-car-themed promotion. The Collision Center became known around town as the place where cars came not just for repairs but also for unexpected company.
