Whats the bet that crash was proceeded by, "This car is fooly sick, uleh".
Reminds me of that old AAMI, ad where the EB Falcon landed on the guys roof. Lucky no one was hurt.

In the news report, Police "suspect" speed an alcohol a contributing factor.
Well I know, alcohol didn't cause it outright.. But come on....Speed....They only suspect it.......Pfffttttt. So i bet the car was doing 40 when this happend? LOL! 40 x 5, hahaha. |

I think that one is a write off.
There must have been some seriously ridiculous speed involved for that to happen. I think it also says something about how much strength there is in the timber frame of a house too. That one survived a lot of force, and stopped a falling car. |

Nah thats a VE you can tell by the taillights.
This dude must have been doing atleast 150 when he lost it.. I wonder if there is any video footage at the intersections - they are pretty new so there might be

Yep, VE SS. They really do fly!
The owners of that house are some of the luckiest people alive, but unlucky at the same time. Having an SS Commodore fly through the roof of your house is certainly rotten luck! |
