The above report claims driver had three attempts at driving the car into the wall and then poured petrol over car and building and set some flares off!

I saw this on the BBC News. The 82 year old driver escaped unharmed but is believed to be a member of the sailing club.

The family living above in the flat escaped unharmed.
