A scary crash on Santa Paula Street sent a truck flying right into a family's house this morning.
It started when a blue car speeding way over the limit slammed into a white truck with significant force.
The impact caused the truck to careen off the roadway and into the residence, resulting in serious structural damage to the home.
The homeowner reported that their parked RV actually served as a life saving barrier.
If the RV had not been there, the speeding car likely would have smashed into the other side of the house as well.
Neighbors like Gabrielle Holguin have been begging the city for traffic calming help for months.
Residents claim that drivers treat this 35 mph residential road like a racetrack on a daily basis.
There have already been reports of multiple bad crashes and even traffic related deaths on this specific stretch of road.
People are tired of waiting for city officials to make changes before another neighbor gets seriously hurt or killed.
The local community is now demanding immediate intervention, such as speed bumps or increased police patrols, to slow down the dangerous traffic.
