An elderly driver has escaped with minor injuries after his car ploughed into two units at a retirement village in Bateau Bay.
Fire and Rescue NSW deployed two crews to the scene of the crash in Bias Ave, just after 11am on Friday, January 12.
It appears the sedan smashed through a pillar outside the entrance to one of the units, pushing a pile of bricks and rubble against the external wall of a neighbouring unit before coming to a stop.
None of the elderly occupants of the units was injured.
NSW Ambulance paramedics treated the driver for minor injuries before transporting him to hospital.
Fire and Rescue firefighters shored-up the impacted building which sustained significant structural damage, and safely removed the car.
NSW Police will investigate the cause and circumstances of the crash.
