Car hits house - with a bad ending

From The Bristol Post:

A woman has died and residents have been evacuated after a car crashed into a house in Clevedon.

The woman who was killed was in the house and the occupants of the vehicle, a man and a woman, have been arrested and are currently in police custody.

The incident took place shortly before 8.30pm last night (Wednesday, April 18), on Yeolands Drive.


I've not tracked down the house on Google Maps yet, but I guess that like in most of these cases, the house is at the top of a T-junction or similar.

Top tips:
- don't buy a house at the top of a T-junction;
- if you own one, replace your front garden wall with concrete blocks;
- town planners and developers, please don't put houses at the top of T-junctions.

If this is it, then no T junction..

PJH, good work thanks. Perhaps the van was trying to make a right turn out of The Tynings?

"- if you own one, replace your front garden wall with concrete blocks;"

backed up with some pretty hefty RSJs if you want to prevent an unscheduled delivery by a 40-ton artic.

Apparently, a house at the top of a T-junction has bad Feng Shui.
