Not only that, I live at the dangerous end of a "T" intersection. If one
car ran that stop sign...

Anyhow, been 20 years now in this same house and no trouble.


Year 21 may be the year your luck runs out.

I knew a guy that lived at the end of a sharp 90 degree turn, and someone
fell asleep at the wheel, and the car ended up parked in his bedroom,
pushing the bed up against the wall, with the ceiling collapsed on top of
him. It took a long time to get him out, but all he ended up with was some
scrapes and bruises. He was lucky that he had a sturdy bed, with a tall
headboard. That fact held up part of the ceiling, and kept from crushing
his head and chest.

You might want to consider getting the authorities to put up a guardrail, or
a very large stone to protect the house. Food for thought?
