MARLBOROUGH, Mass. -- The bang Scott Penney heard at a Fourth of July cookout wasn't fireworks; it was the sound of a car crashing through the roof of his home.

Penney was preparing to host a backyard barbecue when a beige 1992 Ford Taurus drove off an elevated parking lot and crashed into his home's roof, which was about the same level as the lot.

Penney, a downstairs tenant in the home, heard the noise from the accident but didn't see what had happened until he went around the two-family house.

"Then I saw the car in the middle of my roof," Penney told the MetroWest Daily News of Framingham.

The car came to rest with its hood sticking out the roof. The vehicle came to rest on a supporting wall and did not fall into the home's living area.

Arriving firefighters climbed a ladder and helped the car's driver get out. No one was injured. Penney's girlfriend had been inside at the time, and the upstairs tenants had been away.

The driver, Shirley Elder, is in her 70s and had been alone at the time of the accident. She refused medical treatment.

That''s a great picture.

Given enough time I could probably learn to park like that too.

Wow... jumping dukes of hazard style...

You''re born non-citizen and thus not eligible. And if they amend the Consitution to allow you to run for a president, you''ll face still competition from Arnold. Noone messes with Arnold!

I wonder if their rates will go up.

No, we don''t need mandatory driver testing every few years! She can''t carry her cans of V8 juice up the steps, but let''s keep her behind the wheel!

But it''s the only way the lonely older peoples can get around...
We need them to fill our malls durring the day when the teens are in schools. We need them to vote based on political platforms from the 50s. We need them to complain about everything and to let us know that we don''t know how lucky we are, not having to walk to work up hill both ways.
Dang it we just need them

If I had seen that elsewhere I would have assumed it was photoshopped; what a great picture.

Do you guys remember the old man who plowed through the Farmer''s Market in LA last year? I hope I have the sense to turn in my license when I get that bad.
