A woman recorded the aftermath of a truck that tore through her and her neighbor’s yards, leaving several boxes of Milwaukee tools strewn across the ground. Krissy C. (@fattyxgirl) posted a series of TikToks detailing the scary incident. In addition to worrying about the harm that could’ve possibly come to those in the accident’s proximity, she says the wreck also highlighted how stalwart Milwaukee’s products are.

Truck Yard Wreckage

Krissy begins her video by walking through a yard, showing off the damage caused by the runaway driver. Left behind were sets of tools packaged in Milwaukee’s distinct red branding. The TikToker can be heard saying off-camera, “Hey Milwaukee, a truck just went through my yard at about 50 miles an hour.” Next, she pans her lens up off the ground and onto the road. Another large toolbox can be seen resting beside the asphalt. Further along, an additional large storage container, also red in color, rests on the side of the road.

As she continues to walk, she commends the build quality of the brand’s offerings. “All their toolboxes, your [expletive] is still surviving,” she says. The TikToker then hones in on a smaller Milwaukee clamshell-style case that’s still intact. “If this ain’t the best form of advertisement, I don’t know what is. You’re welcome. Not a [expletive] mark,” she adds, walking past yet another Milwaukee toolbox as she flips her camera around to show the distance she’s traveled in the clip. “All the way down there, through my fence. Go Milwaukee,” she says, showing off the damage to her property as her clip comes to a close.

Milwaukee Crash Updates

Krissy also posted several follow-up videos that further delineate the aftermath of the truck crash. In this clip, she shows skid marks left on a driveway, along with tread lines that tore up portions of their lawn. The TikToker also notes that a neighbor’s mailbox was damaged in the accident.

In another clip, she explained that the person who drove through the yards was a 32-year-old mother. Krissy detailed that her husband ran outside to approach the woman, who the TikToker says was intoxicated behind the wheel at the time. Moreover, she detailed how frightening the incident was, as her daughter and dogs were in the yard prior to the accident. She shuddered to think what could have happened if the woman struck them while they were outdoors.

Thankfully, she said that “everyone is OK,” but it was difficult getting back to sleep after thinking about what injuries her loved ones could’ve sustained. In yet another TikTok, she shared a photograph of the truck after it careened through the yards. The picture shows a red pickup stalled on an embankment on the side of the road. Krissy appears to have digitally scribbled on a portion of the photograph over the opened driver’s side door, presumably to shield the identity of the woman driving the truck.

Commenters Respond

Several folks who replied to Krissy’s video seemingly urged her to keep the Milwaukee tools for herself. “What tool boxes? We didn’t see any tool boxes,” one penned. Another replied, “Nice of them to drop off your new tools.”

One user on the application quipped, “You lost a fence, but gained a contracting business.”

Whereas another joked, “Well at least [the driver] left the tools to fix it.”

Another TikToker speculated that Krissy and her family could keep the tools and resell them. Subsequently, they could get the money from the tools left behind to pay for the construction of a new fence.

“In fairness. those tools resell for more [than] the property damage. God works in mysterious ways,” they wrote.

There was one person on the app who urged Krissy to bring up the incident to the county in order to argue for the installation of a guardrail. “I’d be talking to the county & see if you can get a guardrail installed in yours & your neighbors front [yard],” they said.

And from the looks of this user’s comment, it seems that there are others who’ve had to deal with drunk drivers ruining their property: “We’ve had our mail box ran over 4 times. 3 doors down we have the party house. My husband finally put a thick metal pole in the ground very deep down with cement. So this time they are just gonna run it down next time. I can not stand drunk drivers! Every single one should be in jail.”

Guardrails

According to the Federal Highway Administration (FHA), guardrails are installed in order to “lessen the severity of crashes.” These multi-part systems help to prevent or minimize damage to property that rests behind them by slowing down or stopping vehicles that may collide with them.

A number of tests are conducted on guardrails to determine their protection efficacy. One assessment involves a side-swipe scenario. If a vehicle were to steer into a guardrail, the apparatus should redirect the car back onto the road.

Furthermore, head-on collisions are also tested on guardrails, which are designed to absorb the impact of vehicles. Portions of the rails are designed to bend as a means of capturing this kinetic energy to assist in stopping cars that directly strike them, grill first. The FHA writes that most guardrails are rated for speeds up to 62 miles per hour. Should a vehicle hit one at speeds in excess of this figure, “the guardrail may not operate optimally,” the organization states.
