Doesn't look too bad from the photo, but since it's a split level, it took out part of the basement wall and the rim joist supporting the first level floor joists, and a water line to boot. Quite a bit of structural damage, not to mention the mess.
Fortunately, no one was hurt, including the driver.
According to a neighbor who happened to be sitting outside on her porch at the time, the driver went up over the curb to the right, swiped a tree, and then over-corrected, crossed over to the left, up over the other curb and across the yard into my sister's house, all without finding the brake, apparently. Police believe there were no drugs or alcohol involved, but that the middle-aged, female driver was texting at the time.
