Default Pavement motorist badly damages a house and cause injuries and a gas leak.

Pavement cyclists could never ever cause this amount of damage.

"Three people including a pedestrian have been hurt in a two-car collision
which also seriously damaged a house in the south Wales valleys.

The incident happened in Shingrig Road, Nelson, Caerphilly county, at 20:40
GMT on Friday.

Gwent Police say an 18-year-old woman pedestrian was among those taken to
hospital.

A 17-year-old male driver was also hurt along with a woman, aged 50, who was
travelling in the other vehicle.

It is not known if anyone was in the house at the time of the incident.

South Wales Fire and Rescue Service said there was a gas mains leak and gas
officials attended the scene along with a structural engineer.

Gwent Police said none of the injuries are believed to be life threatening.

A second woman travelling in the same car with the injured woman escaped
injury.

The vehicles involved were a Grand Cherokee jeep and Megane car.

A Wales & West Utilities spokesman said the damaged supply gas pipe also
served a neighbouring property and engineers had been working at the site on
Saturday to restore its power.

Police have appealed for witnesses to call 101 or 01633 838111"

You still seem to have to convince yourself of the bleedin' obvious, and
post off-topic to this ng to tell everyone of your wonderful discovery.

Most odd.

If only there were some sort of disincentive for drivers crashing into buildings.

Perhaps there should be a law against it?

Indeed. The punishments are derisory or even non-existent. It seems to be
naturally assumed that loss of control by a motorist is somehow 'accidental'
and therefore unavoidable, judged by a justice system dominated by the car
culture.

Are you suggesting that people deliberately lose control of their cars?

and therefore unavoidable


Not the same thing, and the one does not imply the other.
