Default Crazy way to wake up

Got woken/startled out of bed at 640 am today.
An out of control car hit my house, my wifes Yaris & my 2500.
Not sure, but the 2500 may get written off, fair bit of damage to the back of the Yaris as well.

Finally an excuse to get rid of that Yaris!

Seriously though, sorry to hear that dude. At least the Indy is fine, and from a glass half full viewpoint, you might be getting a new truck to haul her with.

What caused the guy to lose control of his car?

Woman was playing with another driver (cutting each other off) & she tried to pass in the center turn lane. Guy she was trying to pass sped up, she pulled in back in & clipped him & spun him 360*. She deflected over a couple neighbors lawns, side swipped a concrete light pole, just missed hitting neighbor having smoke in his car (1' from hitting him) then up our front steps, into & over the Yaris & 2500. She hit the house beside us about 6' off the ground. The car more or less dropped & stopped just before hitting neighbors porch.

The 2500 was 2' behind the Yaris when I went to bed, about 6' behind it when I got up.
Also moved my trailer back a foot or so.
Have a bunch of pics of the carnage, vid of it on a few news channels up here.

Just finished an interview with CBC, car rental place at the door now to get me a couple vehicles. Ill post some pics of the mayhem later on when I get a chance

I don't think the truck is totaled might be close but I don't think its done.

I though I had a bad morning when I did the panic wake up thinking I had work.
