Boxing Day morning has started with a bang for an Auckland family after a car came crashing through his fence as he slept.
The driver in a silver Toyota Carolla sedan appeared to have crossed the centre line, Cockle Bay resident Heath Moore said.
The corner the driver had lost control on was fairly tight, and the road was wet. The driver would have been coming down a slope.

"Around 8.30 this morning I was inside sleeping. We heard this massive bang and so we raced outside and a guy [had] come around the corner in his car and ploughed straight through the fence," Moore said.
