Car slams into lounge: "'I had only just gone outside to get some tools from my van when I saw a car mount the kerb, drive through the bushes and then into the house and then a big bang,' Mr Guerin said."
This is so lucky because no one was hurt and there was actually someone who saw it and could clarify the situation. The guy watching tele must have been dumbfounded. It makes a helluva noise and it is so bizarre when a car ploughs through gardens and houses...like with my neighbour next door. It is also so scary being the first one on the scene because you just don't know what you can encounter. I had gone next door after a massive bang and had no idea what I'd have to deal with. It is just so unbelievable and once you verify that no one is hurt, the next thing you worry about is structural damage. It amazed me we actually thought of it. People's minds can adapt so quickly to weird circumstances. This is the second serious incident with an older driver who has suffered a physical shutdown while driving. I think we need to look at the licencing of older people because it is becoming difficult and people seem to be driving for longer. I am glad no one was hurt, but it takes a while to repair the damage.
