My door bell rings at 4:00 a.m. I answer the door half asleep. There is this really fat black cat at my door sweating profusely. He asks to borrow my phone because he needs a tow.



I look past him and see his 2004 Toyota Camry in the street. The whiole drivers side front of the car is smashed in. The front wheel is pushed back into the wheel well.



I scan to back of the car. My 3 pallets of driveway pavers that were delivered 2 weeks ago are all pushed off the pallets and smashed!!



This guy never hit his breaks! He hit the pavers and they stopped him. I called the cops and got a police report. I went back inside and decided to just take a shower and get ready for work. It was about 5:00 when all this mess was sorted out by the cops.



I walk out front at 6:00 and the guy and his girlfriend are sleeping in their car.. no towtruck.



He wakes up and I call AAA and ask why it is taking over 2 hours for a towtruck to show up they opologized and promised a truck within 20 minutes.



I left for work. I will take some pics of the pulverized pavers this afternoon.

Ever seen a Paver driveway? They are flat bricks. Something that I didnt realize was that the damn car crossed over to the wrong side of the road THEN hit the pavers. Dumb ***!!



They are on a pallet waiting to be installed.

This is what our pool will look like when its installed.

Pavers are landscaping stones cast in colored and textured concrete. Cost about 3.50 each
