So a car [nearly] crashed into our house this morning (with pics) ....
Instead, it ended up in our driveway, just a foot or two away from the garage doors. Sideswiped DH's car, pushing it into the back of mine.
DH's car is totaled. It's not even his. It belongs to his dealership. It's a 98 Cadillac he was going to wholesale, now it's totaled. Mine is ok - scratched and dented on the back quarter panel, but DH's body shop can take car of it for us.
Our front lawn has 6" deep skid marks across it.  The car ended up IN our driveway, in front of DH's car! Luckily, we had our cars parked in a staggered position, and not next to each other or there would have been much more damage to both our cars.
The young man driving his father's 06 BMW convertible must have been speeding! The speed limit on our block is 30 mph, people do a minimum of 60  I am VERY lucky I was not out loading my kids into the car taking my son to his summer camp (this was at 8 a.m., I leave at 9 a.m.).
The guy driving did not have a license, only a learner's permit. And he was not even wearing pants, just his boxer shorts and a t-shirt. He asked my DH to borrow a pair of shorts so he could get out of his car! 
Now we have to file a claim against his insurance for not only both of our cars, but property damage as well.
Luckily, no one was hurt. BUt I told my DH that 1) you are never safe when it comes to cars, even in your own driveway! and 2) we are moving off our block as soon as we can!!
I took pics down.

Wow! You are so lucky you were all in the house at that moment.
So, since you've posted that he's a little obsessive about the lawn, is DH more upset about the damage to his car or his lawn?

Oh wow! So glad you're all OK. That damage is just unbelievable! What a stupid kid -- and if he has a permit -- shouldn't he have been in the car with someone?
