Car hits house, Pa. youth's driving test delayed
HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) -- A Harrisburg teenager might have been well on his way to earning his driver's license if he hadn't hit the brick house.
Quenton Gann practiced parallel parking, changing lanes and making turns for months. He says he may need more practice on ice.
Gann and his cousin were on the way to his road test Thursday in a borrowed car. The 16-year-old turned left, hit some ice, and the car landed on its side, wedged between a utility pole and a row house porch.
Christina Sears says her house shook, and "It scared my cat so bad, the hair on his back stood up."
Gann and his cousin climbed up out of the passenger's-side window, uninjured. But the car needed a tow truck. Gann says, "I'm going to leave driving alone for a little bit."
At least he knew how to squeeze into a tight spot
