Don’t know why that tree was way out f the road like that.
Perfect parking
Parallel Parking
Government…this is a public safety issue. You better start doing some work on this instead of paying lip service and start getting tough on these individuals!
Someone crashes into a tree on a straight road and you want government to “start doing some work on this instead of paying lip service”? That makes no sense.
Hope it was his/hers car and not mom or grannies!!
No reason for this to happen on a straight road…..you can see speed was involved.
Drunk.
Poor tree! I hope they were breathalysed!
They didn’t follow Beenie Man’s directions:
Rum AND Redbull
Yo bra, tried to make de nip like, that dam tree moved, I saw it bra.
Cha, look at my ride now yo, no trans for Christmas yo.
Not to mention the insurance estimate. NOPE, NO insurance coverage
The more that people make jokes out of this, the more it will get treated as not being serious. If someone on the sidewalk had been killed, would you all be making jokes then?
TREE-MENDOUS CRASH.

I thought the Canadian Hotel was closed.
Hope the people are ok.
Something happened to the driver or the car.
Lets not judge.
This isn’t even at an angle, this person was literally driving on the sidewalk. And to think we didn’t already have a problem with people doing this on their auxiliary cycles trying to find parking spots.
We should make it illegal to drive on the sidewalk that would reduce the chances of this happening again.
