Incident report

Dramatic pictures are one thing but I've had several demands for a full explanation of what happened to the car so here goes...

The car was parked innocently in front of our house and, at about 11.30am on Saturday morning, a P-plate driver came screaming round the corner in his newly-purchased gold Falcon, lost control and smacked into our little red Beemer, almost rolling it onto the footpath (according to local kids who witnessed the event).

Yes he panicked and did a runner but, to his credit, he did return and claimed full responsibility and (thankfully) was fully insured. He was pretty shaken but no one was injured and we hope it means he'll learn a valuable lesson about safe driving!! And we're getting paid out as the car is a write-off so I guess it's a happy ending all round!
