Three people, two juveniles and one adult, were taken to the hospital after a crash on Jamacha Road on Sunday.
One of the cars involved was split in half between the front and back seats, with the front end strewn across the road.
According to the El Cajon Police Department, one of the cars was driving north at a high rate of speed when it drifted into southbound traffic. Officials said the injuries are not life-threatening.
Laurie Debus lives just a few hundred yards from where the crash happened.
"It's crazy. It's really reckless," Debus said.
"I fear for the cars that just come zooming down, down this hill that, that they're going to come into me,” said Debus. “I've said that actually, as long as I've lived here, because they drive so fast.”
Neighbors say speeding on Jamacha Road is too common and can be deadly.
"So this, this stretch of road, in fact, a friend of my daughter's that she went to high school with was killed just right up, right up the street on the left-hand side of the road. It's been extremely dangerous," Debus said.
Neighbors told ABC 10News that no one dying on impact from this crash is miraculous.
"This is astonishing that, that people survived this, because a car being split in half, no one should have walked away from that. And I'm grateful that, that too," said Debus.
