Car Comes Through Wall

Occurred on November 9, 2024 / Weltevreden Park, Roodepoort, South Africa

Info from Licensor: "On the morning of November 9, 2024, around 10 a.m., a shocking and unexpected incident occurred when a vehicle crashed straight through our wall. The collision was halted by our palm tree, which thankfully prevented further damage. Unfortunately, the driver sustained injuries and was rushed to the hospital. This was not a case of reckless driving—the driver experienced a sudden medical issue, which caused the accident. We’re sharing this video to emphasize how quickly situations can change and to raise awareness about the importance of understanding medical conditions that could impact driving. The driver survived the accident but spent three weeks in the hospital recovering. Our insurance covered all repair costs for the damaged wall and our swimming pool, which was also affected. Our thoughts are with the driver, and we wish them a full and speedy recovery. The footage included shows the crash, the aftermath, and the remarkable role our palm tree played in stopping the vehicle."
