Your grasp of the English language is infantile. 'you're an' is the correct way to write the red text.

Car was flying on cctv... very easy to measure speed (time/distance). Way to fast.

[WHYME]

I have an honest question to ask you - would you have still created this same thread if it was a Ford driver? Ah who am I kidding, I hate Holdens as much as the next guy :P

Hope the infant is ok.

[Trump]

In before thread lock for purile behaviour, but sure hope the little bub is okay.

Driver who ploughed into a house leaving a four-month-old baby girl fighting for life was 'attacked with a broken fence paling' after the crash.

Similar thing happened last year with a Falcon- crashed into a house critically injuring a pregnant woman and 3 others. I don't think the make of car is what makes this newsworthy. Idiots drive all makes I'm afraid. Hope the infant is okay.

Another commy driver thinking they are brocky bruv.
Yes it seems like "Oh yeh pick on the driver because they are driving a commodore" but seriously it's getting rediculous as to just how many commodores are becoming involved in pretty full on crashes. it comes down to bogan drivers thinking that commodores are the duck guts, they go fast, they look cool, my mates got a LS1, my mums got a BT1, my sisters got a VL turbo, they all do *** az hellys cuz bla bla bla! Stuff the commodore scene! Poor baby gets hurt by a bloody car in its own bloody house!

IDIOT!

Cars irrelevant, idiots can drive anything. Focus on the story not the car.

I agree but you have got to admit that most are commodore tools

[Bossxr8]

Yeah usually it's a P plater flog in a commodore but it can happen in any make.

Drive past that roundabout at least every 2nd day, it's not easy to take at speed, and in the wet at speed you'd have to be brain dead.

thank god we don't have any idiots driving fords

[TUF_302]

The title should be, an idiot crashes into a house and injures an infant, the make of car is irrelevant

we do around this area and they are usually of the turbo variety

I read the article twice and couldn’t see where it mentioned the make of car.

I guess for most the important piece of news was a car crashed into the bedroom.

Now if it the story was on A Current Affair it would be a different matter altogether.

The vehicle make wouldn’t matter but they would be branding everyone who has a set of rims or has in any way tried to individualise their ride as an evil petrol fuel deadly hoon car enthusiast.

Which is basically tarring all of us.

[uniacidz]

Don't see how make and model of a car play a part in a child being injured.

Hope kiddy gets better

i wonder how many young buks have loses and end up in houses or off road and it never gets reported ?
in the last 20 years i have lived in 2 different houses, both houses i had cars come through the fence, one came through the fence and hit the corner of the brick wall and then took off down the street,

in the the other house an old falcon eb i think, bounced off a parked car on the other side of the road and came through our front color bond fence,
this is a very short narrow street and he had to do a sharp right turn to get into it from another narrow st , and he managed in the distance of 3 houses to have enough speed to get a parked fairlane mounted on their next door neighbors brick fence like a model airplane and then richochet into my fence..

this happens way too often.
if the baby does not make it(hopefully it pulls through with flying colors) this young bloke is gonna grow up real fast.

I gotta tell ya, I had a small chuckle to myself when I heard this

I really hope all victims are going to be OK, this is a parents worst nightmare, but it is good to see someone taking some immediate action to let the tool know they are in fact a tool

He won't. Seems if your in a car then you get away with this.

Stories like this is the reason why I don't feel sorry when these guys wrap themselves around a pole.

Hopefully the little girl survives.

I don't think I could live on a roundabout tbh, bet they'll charge the owner of the house first for assault with a weapon.

Hope not...guy was just repairing his fence and found the driver's head was in the way when trying to put the fence paling back.

[Streets]

********* like this just make life hard for other car enthusiasts not to mention everyone else on the road.

^ this bloke's mum was on the news outside court saying it was the government's fault for not building enough race tracks... with Queensland Raceway 45 minutes up the road...

Not that these people would pay up to attend a track day anyway - they'd get their asses kicked to the curb if they drove on a track like they do on the streets

Saw the tv news item showing the aftermath of the commodore going through the bedroom of the house and wondered why there were no guard rails built to stop vehicles ploughing into the house in the first place.
There's a few roundabouts around my way in suburbia like that one with houses lined up in the path of traffic just waiting for the inevitable.
Maybe it's too hazardous for bike riders to have barriers?

[mr smith]

Fact is Commodores are over represented as the ....wits car of choice. Its been this way for years.
To be honest the one plus out of the end of locals cars is the eventual end of cheap, big, powerful rear drive cars being in the hands of idiots.
They can have Hyundai Excels.

Its a 5 way round about and very busy usually. There is really little chance to go fast through there, unless you are a complete f wit.

There had only been one recorded crash there is the last 2 years. Proves it's not a dangerous roundabout normally.

I drove past it yesterday and the tool must have been flying as he had not even come close to negotiating it, he'd just gone straight through the middle of it.
