A Rotorua family have had to rethink their holiday plans after a driver who allegedly failed to stop for police crashed into their parked house bus.
Phil Wilson and Carey Young run motels in Rotorua, but decided to take the summer off to drive around the North Island with their twin daughters, who are nearly 4, after working for three-and-a-half years.
"We've got the house rented out and decided to have a bit of a break from life," Wilson said.
But at 12.30am today , their plans were disrupted when a motorist in a car that had allegedly been stolen crashed into the bus on Fenton St.
Wilson said the family was sleeping in one of their motel rooms but he had nearly slept in the bus that night.
