I recently picked up a little convertible and was working on the electrical issues it has in my driveway. I heard a noise that sounded like jet back blast and then one heck of a BOOM! I stood up trying to see what happened. I walked around my car and then my pickup and a car had run off the road. Fortunately, the kids next door were at school as he took out most of the fence and went through where they play after school. A kid was trying to put the receipt away from an oil change he had just gotten and ran off the road. 3 feet to the left he would have plowed into my car and about 4 or 5 feet he would have nailed my truck.
I sort of felt sorry for the kid but I'll bet he is more careful with his next car. A friend runs the oil change place and I stopped by to tell him that car wouldn't be back.
While I was talking to one of the Deputies, an older woman stopped and asked if we ought to call the police. I pointed to the unit car where I was standing and then the one in my driveway. Her response was "Oh, I guess not." I told the Deputy what she said and all he said was "And they still have their license."
