  1. Should have let him sit in there longer for being such a dumbass. Please tell me how you flip a car in a 25mph zone. Probably because they weren’t following the speed limit. This city needs to crack down on bad drivers and start implementing consequences. As a home owner that has had their property damaged due to a bad driver I can tell you that auto insurance barely covers property damage. Thank god no pedestrians were injured. Everyone needs to slow the f**k down in this valley.

    • Well said Travis. This valley is terrible to drive in and everybody is in such a big hurry. Speeding, blowing red lights, tailgating, and pulling out in front of you. Like you said, I’m sure this idiot was doing the posted 25mph speed limit (sense the sarcasam!!) Probably doing more like 65!! Thankfully they didn’t kill an innocent bystander or end up in the living room of that house. SLOW DOWN PEOPLE!!!!!!!!

  2. I’ve been hit nearly a dozen times since moving to SCV 28 years ago… nothing really surprises me anymore. Not even the drivers in Beverly Hills act as entitled as they do out here. It’s better to be a few minutes late than end up flipped like this.

  3. WOW!!!! Pathetic drivers/people.

  4. It’s time to name names and call out these idiots who use our local roads as their personal raceway. Public shaming may be the only thing that will have an impact on them.

  5. Wouldn’t you call that Reckless Driving. Which has serious consequences. Site the driver.

    • Dave H. you would think so but unless there’s drugs in the car or the person had been drinking our Sheriffs dept. doesn’t care . When our house got plowed into I showed the Sheriffs the video from my cameras and our Neighbors to prove he was not doing the speed limit and was driving wreckless. The response was “Show that to your insurance company if you wanna go after the driver for damages” . I mean really ????? I should have thrown an empty beer can in the back . In the end we had almost $15K in damage and his insurance company would only cover $5K in property damage. What a nice State we live in

  6. It was an older lady- claimed she “hit the brakes” – prob the gas. She blew the stop sign that T-bones the house and came straight into our friend’s driveway at about 30-35 MPH. Totaled their brand new vehicle in the driveway and hit the house really hard! (They have video from under the eaves by the garage house light – wild video…) Had it been 10 minutes later there would’ve been kids walking home from school. Very scary…could’ve been on her phone, too… People just don’t pay attention!! I agree with Annoyed Driver…see way too much running stop lights and horrible driving in our city. Definitely have to be on the defense!!!
