As we get into the Christmas season, most people would say they would be happy with a new car. They would not want it delivered through their living room wall by a drunk driver at 3:27 am. As crazy as that sounds, it has happened to people in the Yakima Valley more often than you would probably expect.
What to do when a car hits your building
When something this chaotic happens, you might be tempted to siphon the gas from the tank to pay for your deductible. The correct answer is:
- Get your family out of the house.
- Call the authorities.
- Get an expert on site to assess the damage to the property.
The last thing you want or need is secondary damage or a secondary injury. Have an expert secure the damaged area and investigate the structural integrity of the rest of the home.
Make it safe and secure
From house floods to fires to break ins, and yes, even a Toyota 4Runner traveling at 50 mph in a school zone, it is important to make your home or business as safe and secure as possible.
