Neighbors blame a decade-old roundabout in east Vancouver for sending speeding cars smashing into their homes.

City data shows 14 car crashes have occurred at the traffic circle at Northeast 138th Avenue and 32nd Circle since 2015. The most recent one happened in December when a speeding driver lost control in the roundabout and smashed the vehicle into a house, according to the city.
