"It could have killed us if it had struck the rear door of the bedroom directly," he said.

He added that the car that rammed through the wall of their backyard had damaged an air-conditioner, washing machine and two scooters.

The impact was such that it also damaged some windowpanes and doors of the house.

The owner of the car, a Toyota Altis, sustained only minor injuries. He was taken away by the police, who arrived at the spot within minutes. According to a family member, the driver was in an inebriated state. The police took him to hospital for medical examination.
