    Miata crashes into fence, narrowly missing pool at Kissimmee home



    KISSIMMEE, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35 ORLANDO) - Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol said the driver of a car narrowly missed a swimming pool after crashing through a fence and careening into a screened-in area of the backyard of a Kissimmee home on Tuesday afternoon.

    The 19-year-old driver was attempting to make a left turn off of Headdress Drive onto Lonesome Dove Drive, when he lost control of his 1991 Mazda Miata, according to troopers. The driver told troopers he thought he was in a different gear when he lost control of the car.

    The driver did not suffer any serious injuries. The crash remains under investigation and charges are pending.

    I respect people's homes and choose to drive through businesses instead.

    I was passing this around on FB yesterday asking if anybody recognized it.

    When an SUV wrecks into a preschool and kills kids, everyone is pretty upset but only a select few are outraged.
    When a miata causes some mild damage to a pool deck: (I saw this on the news comments already) "MIATAS ARE ONLY DRIVEN BY CRACK ADDICTED HOMOS WHO HAVE LOST GOD IN THEIR HEART"

    I hit a fence once:

    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    I bet you it was some kid on cr they stated he was 19 and shifted in the wrong gear which doesn't make sense to me. You only go forward using the acceleration pedal. You downshift to a stop but go forward using the pedal or the car rolls to a stop. Your in a residential neighborhood unless your showing off driving fast and drift into someone backyard.

    Stupid noob

    I'm more concerned with why the guy is looking in the car than at the lady. She's wearing garters and stockings with no panties.

    Maybe checking for injuries or making sure she's not pinned...so he knows what positions they can do

    NSFW obviously
