plowed into

Slammed right into

To plow into something is to collide with it forcefully, suggesting the momentum and impact of a plow cutting through earth: The truck plowed into the guardrail.

The phrase can also mean to attack vigorously—plowing into a task, a meal, or an opponent: She plowed into the stack of paperwork.
