Unlicensed Teen Driver Plows Vehicle Through Fences into a Brentwood Home

BRENTWOOD (CBS SF) – Police in Brentwood are investigating an accident Thursday where an unlicensed teenager drove a vehicle through two side yards before plowing into a home.

Video posted on Facebook shortly after 2 p.m. Thursday afternoon showed the path of destruction the vehicle left in it's wake.

Here's a reminder to parents of teen drivers to have conversations with their kids about responsible driving and cutting school! Today, Brentwood officers responded to a collision on Blumen Avenue where a vehicle had driven into the side yards of two residences and struck a house causing significant structural damage. Thankfully, no one was injured in the collision nor in the residence. The driver of the vehicle was not only a minor, but they were illegally driving with other minors in the vehicle and speeding. We are grateful no one was injured and we hope this was a learning lesson to all involved.
