Imagine sitting in your home, enjoying your favorite television show, when suddenly a car crashes into the side of your house. You go outside and you see the car, but the driver is nowhere to be found.

According to a recent article on the KMOV website, that’s exactly what happened to one home in the south part of St. Louis. Fortunately, there was no one on the street at 1:23am, which is the time the accident occurred. It’s also fortunate that this particular house was made of brick, which most likely protected it from sustaining serious structural damage. The black Ford Mustang was seriously damaged, but at the time this article was released, the driver still had not been found.

These types of accidents occur for a variety of reasons. Sometimes drugs and alcohol are involved. Other times, it’s simply because the driver was not paying attention to the road, was texting or fell asleep at the wheel. Regardless of the reason, when serious injuries or damages take place because of these types of accidents, the person who is responsible has to pay.

Car crashes happen all the time in St. Louis, and if you’re involved, it is vital for you to contact a St. Louis personal injury attorney right away. You have rights that should be protected, and your attorney will ensure that you get the compensation you deserve following any kind of accident.
