Garage Damaged by Driverless Amazon Van

(La Porte County, IN) - A driver for Amazon delivered more than just packages.

 

According to La Porte County Police, the 26-year-old driver parked outside a home Friday in the area of 400 South and 300 East. He climbed into the back of the van to locate some packages to leave at the residence when the van started moving forward. The van drove 20 feet into the garage door. 

 

The impact left a massive dent in the door, but there was no structural damage. The driver, who explained he placed the delivery van in park, reached the homeowner at his workplace to notify him about the damage, police said.
