Car vs House

Post by Tyranus »

Had an SES callout tonight, Car V House. It was more just a storage area in a block of apartments being rented out. Either the driver came in too quickly or took off in First rather than reverse. The wall was knocked out of place a bit, had to stick an acrow prop up so that the top half by a door frame didn't collapse, will try get pics up later.

Haven't we spoken about this before PRC-495. The original post is nearly 6 months old.

This is where the car hit the store room. We cleared the room, and put in an Acro Prop to help support the wall.

Perspective of the knock on the other side of the store room.

Close up of the major split on the back wall.

Displacement on the side wall, gate and wall "made safe", gotta love the good ol' danger tape.

The rubble from the front wall where the acro prop was put.

There you go, very late but you get that :P...WA = Wait Awhile
