What’s Cooking? Driver Ploughs into Kitchen

There are definitely so much more better ways of finding out what do others have for dinner than entering with your car in their house. Unfortunately, that was the only solution that a driver of a Toyota Celica thought of a few days ago.

So, what did happen? The driver lost control of the silver Celica and ploughed through the side wall of Michael and Julie Miller, a couple from South Wales.

"We were woken up at 4am this morning by a bang, which we thought was thunder, and the electricity went off,” said Mrs Miller to BBC Wales News.

She said that her husband could smell gas so they quickly left the house and then they saw the their side wall was destroyed by a car. "I'm just glad we got out of the house because we could have been dead. An hour later I would have been standing in that kitchen making tea," she added.

The Celica name derived from the Latin word "coelica" meaning "heavenly" or "celestial". Well, we don’t know how heavenly this incident was for the owners of the house, but it sure wasn’t pleasant.

Of course, it was not what he intended to do, but when you are drink driving it’s somehow difficult to take responsibility of your actions. Therefore, according to Auto Trader, he left the scene, but he was later arrested for DUI.

"Extensive damage has been caused to the house and local authority structural engineers are assessing the property. The driver of the vehicle made off from the scene. A 24-year-old man from the Neath area was later arrested by officers for drink driving and is currently in custody,”
said a South Wales Police spokeswoman to the same aforementioned source.
