That was a close shave! Dramatic moment Holden Commodore crashes into a barbershop
- Car hits front of barber shop in Western Sydney
- Fortunately, the driver and her passenger escaped unhurt
A driver, her passenger and the staff and customers of a barber shop miraculously avoided injury after a car drove through the front door of the barber shop.
The female driver lost control of her Holden Commodore on Elizabeth Drive in Liverpool, western Sydney, just after 7am on Friday.
Dramatic CCTV footage shows the car plowing through the storefront of Babylon Fadez hairdressers, which thankfully is empty at the time.
The chilling video captures the sedan skidding through the wet weather before cutting off a curb, then speeding through the hairdressers before coming to a stop.
Fortunately, the place was not open at the time.

The driver and her passenger were helped out of the vehicle by bystanders and walked away shaken but unharmed.
Barber Gee Oraha told 9News that had the incident happened a little later, his and his client’s lives could have been cut short.
“That’s my chair over there, the first one,” he said, pointing to the chair at the front of the barbershop.
“Thank God I didn’t get up early or I would have been dead.”
Barbershop owner Monaf Al said he only opened the business nine months ago, but is just glad no one was hurt in the incident.

Miraculously, no one was injured but the female driver and her passenger was helped out of the vehicle by bystanders and walked away shaken but unharmed
