A man was taken to Royal Perth Hospital yesterday after he drove his car into a Cannington home.

The crash happened on Sevenoaks Street, near Bent Street, just before 4.30pm.

The driver lost control of the car and ploughed into the garage, destroying a roller door and causing thousands of dollars of damage.

It is not known whether the homeowners were inside the house at the time of the crash.

The driver received non-life threatening injuries.
