Proper road crash barriers would have more than likely kept that car on the road.
The replacement of a bent steel steel crash barrier would be a whole lot cheaper and take far less time than rebuilding that wall…again.
Sensible and sober driving would probably have prevented that!
I have driven Harbour Road many times, even a few times when I probably should not have, without going overboard.
You seem to have the answer to every circumstance.
Explain why the vehicle went through wall and into the harbor.
????????
Cant park there
“Cant park there”
Thank you for that. It made me smile.
Good thing it is not an electric car. Most likely would burst into flames at some point after being removed from salt water.
