Every time she waits for a bus, or to cross the street, she's much more close to traffic than that!

Friend living in Canberra lived at the apex of a "T" junction. Had a car fail to stop, came through the front wall, living room and ended up in the kitchen at the back of the house. Unfortunately, for the driver, no one was home, so take away not available. Solution involved building a wall constructed of red gum railway sleepers along the front so anyone attempting a repeat with the same level of speed was going to be pulling an unwitting kamikaze stunt. Wayward cars, trucks etc parked inside home bedrooms, lounges etc seem to feature regularly on the news, here at least. Four days ago,
