What they're saying:
Homeowner Kristy Miller's doorbell camera captured video of the crash. She said when she went to check on the drivers, the Amazon driver asked her, "Did you get your package?"
"He had just made a delivery to my neighbor's house, and so I had just seen him get back in his car and drive off. Then not even two minutes later I hear a huge boom outside and hear him screaming out there," added Stormy Lovern.
That driver, Dashon Holloman, was in good spirits while talking to a FOX 4 reporter on the phone. He is a Fort Worth husband and father of two who is new to the company.
He said Amazon was helpful after the crash. And he stayed to make sure everyone got their packages before going to the hospital for a minor knee injury.
"We're thankful both drivers are safe and appreciate the customer’s concern and immediate assistance after this incident," an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement.
