Driver Who Fell Asleep At The Wheel Careens Into Home, Narrowly Missing Three Dogs

We sometimes take it for granted because we do it all the time, but driving is dangerous business.

Making sure you’re in the right state of mind to drive is so important, and that doesn’t just mean being sober. People who fall asleep at the wheel are shockingly common, and it can cause an enormous amount of damage to property, in addition to putting the driver and others’ lives at risk. Just ask Paul Stewart, whose home was recently hit by an SUV.

Shocking video shows the SUV smashing into the side of the living room and kitchen, narrowly missing the three dogs inside.
