Left turn on a straight road

3:04am… Been awake for about 30 mins.. trying to get back to sleep.

I hear another jerk speeding down the street seeing what their vehicle can do as I’ve heard numerous times before… this time… I hear them hit the brakes, long screeching noises, bang and the whole house shudders..

Lisa wakes up and says something about the cats knocking something down… I tell her that cats don’t have headlights pointing into the back yard.

The guy hit the house… or more accurately, hit the block wall behind the house.  Took out the gate and part of the block wall.  Cute, will have to use a leash on the dog when they go out until it is fixed.

Some young jerk… no… this guy looks around my age… yep, 1951, he is older.  The vehicle, a 2002 blue Corvette apparently taking it for a spin.  Not his car, belongs to a friend.  I’m sure his friend is going to be really happy.

I can hear him telling the cop that he was going about 45mph and swerved to miss a dog… right.. doubt there is a dog, really doubt the speed too…  Really surprised but apparently no alcohol is involved.

Hard to figure how he hit like he did as it looks like he would have been coming the other direction.

*Edit* Just noticed that the vehicle has an illegal license plate cover that blocks the license place from a flash.  Wonder if they caught that.

    Not your usual yard decor. I’m sure Lisa is stressed about this as well as you. What a way to start the day. Calm down cause’ you can handle this Kev. I’m praying for a good outcome.

    Someone drove into my wife’s house when she was younger. There was no block wall and they ended up with the truck partially inside the house. I’ll have to ask my MIL if they have any pictures of that.

    Glad you guys were not hurt.
