Langhorne-Middletown Fire Company Chief Frank Farry said the driver suffered injuries to his face and legs. He was aided by firefighters and transported to a local hospital by the Penndel-Middletown Emergency Squad.

The snow bank appeared to slow the car as it drove toward the home, Farry said.

The home suffered damage to the front, but it remained habitable, the fire chief said.
