How Much Damage Can a Car do When it Hits a Kansas City Building?

It is easy to identify the danger to person and property when a car hits another car, a motorcyclist, a bicyclist or a pedestrian. What happens when a car hits a building? Is there a danger to the people within the building? Can the structure of the building itself be compromised in a Kansas City car accident?
What Your Kansas City Personal Injury Attorney Wants You to Know About Cars Crashing Into Buildings
When a motor vehicle crashes into a building:

People inside the building may be injured. Injuries can result because of a direct hit by the vehicle, because of falling debris, or because the structural integrity of the building is compromised and part, or all, of the building falls.
The building may be damaged. The damaged building can result in significant problems. For example, the local building inspector may deem the building unusable if it is unstable. For residences, that means finding somewhere else to live and for businesses that means lost income. Additionally, repairs may be expensive.

The exact damage that is done in this type of Kansas City car crash is dependent on numerous factors. Including, how fast the vehicle was traveling when it hit the building, and what part of the building was hit.
