'There are so many residents here, they could have hit children.'
This is the moment a speeding driver crashes a car into a row of houses and destroys a set of front gardens.
The black BMW 20 collided into the front garden in Bradford, West Yorkshire, at 6.15pm on Monday.
The car skids on the road, hits the curb, crashes into a home before it rolls over and lands in a front garden.
CCTV shows three people who were inside of the car getting out and walking away from the scene following the crash.
As people slowly start to get out of the car, neighbours can be seen coming out of their homes to check what is going on.
Nobody was injured according to emergency services.
A homeowner impacted by the crash who did not want to be named said: ‘They were driving and revving the engine, and the car just hit the property.
‘It flipped upside down and hit our house… They must have been driving at least 60mph. There are so many residents here, they could have hit children.
‘Luckily nobody was hurt, but they crawled out of the car like little cockroaches.
‘Ultimately, they didn’t care. They were walking around for a while. They put their hoods up and walked off.
‘There was no concern for anyone’s safety and I’m worried they’re not going to suffer any consequences for their actions.
‘If it was just a metre off it would have hit into the door.
‘We had to evacuate the property. The fire service told us “you have to get out in case there’s any structural damage.”‘
Her husband said: ‘Our family was upstairs, my daughter was playing and my son I were playing a game of FIFA, then I heard what sounded like two cars smashing.
‘There was a massive thud and you could feel it shook the building. It was shocking.
‘I looked outside and you could see the car sitting on its side in front of our neighbour’s home.’
He said the fire service turned off the gas and electricity in the home and then evacuated them all.
He added: ‘I’m surprised the car stayed together as much as it did.
‘To cause this amount of damage to these properties is crazy.
‘We are grateful we’re all ok. It’s better the car hit the building.
‘When the crash occurred at 6.15pm, that is the prime time for us to put the bin out for the next day.
‘Our neighbours could have been sitting out or working in the garden.’
Police confirmed enquiries are ongoing to locate the occupants of the car.
The fire service sent two fire engines to the scene.
