Not Even Safe In Your Driveway

Too bad about the rod, but it probably saved the homeowner when this car crashed into his living room south of Boston yesterday: http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/...r-barrels-into-house-antique-car-in-weymouth/

 

Wow! looks like the guy lost his motorcycle also.

 

I saw it on Channel 5 News this morning.
An ugly scene.
I'm glad that everyone involved is unharmed, amazing though.

 

Wow! Looks like the chassis/drivetrain will still be usable. Glad no one was hurt!

 

I saw that on channel 7 this morn, tried to fine pictures on the net to post here but no luck. The woman was suppose to be in reverse at the time?? Great....

 

just kinda makes you sick doesnt it?

 

Wow! Glad nobody got hurt. Sure would be interesting to know how that accident really took place, car must have been really moving along. I'm sure there will be details on the car and bike when I get home tonight.

 

oof. lucky guy, unlucky car!!

looks like the driver didn't know how to paahk the caah in the yaahd.

 

Anyone in the market for a slightly damaged Chrysler Sebring ragtop?? Maybe a project hotrod?

Everyone involved is very fortunate to be alive and uninjured...cars can be replaced, and houses can be fixed.

 

Says he thinks he blacked out and something to do with having a new car. Must have been some pretty heavy duty buyer's remorse. Either that or the new car smell has something extra special in it these days.

At least he said he was sorry.

 

I just read about this on the Massachusetts H.A.M.B. this morning. I know the history of that roadster, And travailed with it for years. It was a real driver the guy that built it drove it anywere and in all weather

 

good thing he wasn't in it !!!!!

Man what a shame. Of all the cars to run into, what a loss and disappointment for the owner or the roadster. Thankfully no one was hurt.

 

Very crazy incident, health issues cause some wild auto accidents, thank god no one is hurt. But I am sure the homeowner,vehicle owner has some big hurt feelings and anquish about his destroyed rides. ~sololobo~

 

Jeez, that is rough shit...... The guy blacked out from excitment of buying a new car, really, is that his excuse?

That would ruin your day, thought the owner took it a lot better than I would have.

 

I can see a 29 Ford title for sale

 

man... i would be so pissed off... and to top it off its a POS chrysler sebring, i wonder if the driver was elderly? was backing up and hit the gas instead of the brake.. and then freaked out? could have also been a mechanical F%%% up as those cars are the biggest toilets of them all....

 

Thats a Drag

 

l bet the insurance claim is gonna give that driver's agent a stroke when they see how much it is to replace that hot rod.

if it is totalled buy it back for salvage, at least that way you would have some parts to sell or put on the "new" rod. l hope he finds a real nice rod to replace the crushed one.

I don't understand how these things can happen. It had to be an older/handicapped person or something.

 

I'd kind of like to see the insurance bill for this wreck too. The bike is a Harley Softail, not worth what they were 5 years ago, but still not cheap.

Or some kid that thought he could drive better than he could. (G)

 

Kids don't generally smash the back of their cars that far into things, but it's definitely a possibility.

 

You never saw some of the stuff I did when I was a little younger (Here, hold my beer and watch this!!).
But actually I was kinda being a smart ass, something that's kinda hard to outgrow. Sorry 'bout that.
Better get some work done.

"Hit a pole, then the car reversed and took off across the street, hitting the roadster, bike and house." WHAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT?
Age of driver, please.

 

The driver wasn't injured, but he would have been after i beat his ass!

 

That happened 5 min from my house. I just drove by there on Friday and saw that rod. The guy always has rods, bikes, Musclecars there, most for sale. Glad nobody got hurt.

 

This situation sucks but that post made me laugh.

 

Whats all this shit about older / handicapped? It was most likely younger / middle
aged ,high or drunk driver,maybe texting.
