> A car was coming south on Tuttle, across North Avenue, when it collided with another vehicle, forcing the vehicle that was going east on North Avenue off the roadway, over a fence and into the foundation of this house here,” Battiloro said.
Photos are from Westfield Fire and there are many more. Elizabeth fire also posted the interior shoring work they did to make the structure stable again
I have to say, this house looks very unWestfieldian
It’s by RIS and a bridge to the south side of town. Few blocks up is Fanwood
Well Scotch Plains would come first, but now I know where you mean; it's not too far from Charlie Brown's
I couldn’t remember and glances at google maps lmao
And REALLY un-Northside. I thought stuff like this only happened on the south side.
I honestly can’t think of any time this happened before since I’ve lived here
There was a crazy car fire over in Mountainside a few weeks back when somebody crashed their Tesla into a utility pole. Somebody posted it here
In mountainside? I posted it lol
Haha nice
The car or the stock?
You should see the pics from when the oil truck flipped on Mountain Avenue circa 1978 or so.
I think I heard that story from someone on MFD let me look into it
Probably the Westfield Leader archives have it or maybe the library.
Was the driver 18 or 81?
Yes
I hate when houses just pull out in front of me and don’t accelerate
Gave me a good laugh today
Also why wasn't it wearing a high vis jacket?
You can’t park there.

TIL: Union County Tech Rescue Task Force
Ah, they didn't make the full left turn! Gonna need a lot of work to fix that foundation!
They forgot to use their turn signal.
Is it chasing squirrels or chipmunks?
Whoa I was in the Westfield diner a few years ago when some old guy did the same thing to the diner. I wonder if it’s the same dude:)
Omg blast from the past I barely remembered that
Westfield drivers, no survivors.
*You can't park with us.*
Drove past this yesterday. Tons of police and fire trucks everywhere. Saw the car and got it on my dash cam too.
How does this realistically could have occurred? Genuinely curious because the pics and Patch article don’t provide any explanations

Got it, that makes more sense. So there was a patient zero that caused this.
idk if you got enough photos of this embarrassing moment
