It then hit the back of a Mercedes minibus parked on the driveway.

The driver of the vehicle was not there when they arrived.
There was no damage to the house, but a section of the wall could be seen completely flattened.
Images taken from the scene show the car a mangled wreck.
The road was sealed off by police while the mess was cleared up.
Fire crews were called to the scene as there were reports the vehicle was smoking, but it was not when they arrived.
The firefighters made sure the area was safe and helped with recovery of the damaged vehicle.
They left the scene at around 11.25pm.
Greater Manchester Police were also called to the collision.
The incident took place just yards away from another crash, involving four cars, which took place earlier on the same evening on Wilbraham Road.
A section of Wilbraham Road, between Withington Road and Wyverne Road, was closed following the smash at 6pm.
There were no reported injuries.
A spokesman for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service said: "We were called at 10.48pm last night to reports of a road traffic collision on Wilbraham Road, Whalley Range.
