Incredible footage captures the moment an out-of-control ute smashes into the front of a family home before the driver appears to try and flee the scene.
The high-speed crash – and its dramatic aftermath – was captured on dash cam in Brockman, a suburb in the coastal town of Carnarvon, 900km north of Perth, just before 8am on Friday.
Video shows a silver ute flying down a steep hill and ploughing through the front fence of a two-storey home.
‘Jesus Christ. What the f***,’ a nearby driver is heard yelling as the vehicle collides into a parked car.

As shocked witnesses rush towards the home, video shows the door of the silver ute swinging open and a young woman jumping down from the drivers seat.
‘Call the police quick,’ a woman tells an associate, as the driver begins to collect her belongings from the back seat of the vehicle.
As more concerned neighbours emerge from their homes the driver is seen throwing a bag over her shoulder and attempts to walk away from the ute.
One man blocks the woman from leaving the property before another witness grabs hold of her T-shirt as she breaks into a sprint.

After her unsuccessful attempts to leave the property two men are seen holding tightly to each of the woman’s arms as a bystander calls the police.
The 20-year-old driver was charged with driving under the influence and reckless driving, a Western Australia Police spokeswoman said.
The woman will be summoned to court at a later date, the spokeswoman said.
