Ford Mustang Crashes Into Home After Speeding Through Intersection

A surveillance camera captured the moment when a Ford Mustang crashed into a home in California. The incident occurred at around 7 p.m. on Thursday in Grand Terrace when the Mustang, a fifth-generation model, failed to stop at an intersection.

The footage shows the Mustang approaching the T-intersection at a high speed. It is unclear when the driver applied the brakes, but the car’s momentum was too much. As the Mustang entered the intersection, it bottomed out, causing sparks to fly as the suspension rebounded and sending the back tires into the air.

The Mustang, believed to be a 2010-2012 V6 model, crashed back down on the other side of the road, hitting the curb. This impact launched the car into the air, causing it to fly into the front porch of a home. The car reached a considerable height before crashing back down to the ground.

Depending on the year, the Mustang could have a 4.0-liter or a 3.7-liter V6 engine. The fifth-generation Mustang received a significant styling update in 2010, but new powertrains were not installed until 2011, when Ford introduced the 5.0-liter Coyote V8 along with a smaller base engine.

Fortunately, there were people inside the home at the time of the incident, but no one was injured. The driver of the Mustang also escaped without any major injuries, freeing themselves from the vehicle and refusing medical treatment. The cause of the accident remains unclear.

The driver did receive two citations from the police: one for running a stop sign and another for driving without a license. It is possible that the vehicle experienced a mechanical failure, but it was also observed that the Ford was traveling at a high rate of speed for a residential street.

This incident serves as a reminder to always pay attention when driving. The driver should consider themselves fortunate, as things could have ended much worse. They were fortunate not to collide with another vehicle or pedestrians. We hope that the damage to the home is minimal and are grateful that no one was seriously harmed.
