PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. (WPEC) — Several neighbors say they’re fed up with drivers speeding down a busy parkway behind their homes in Port St. Lucie at all hours of the day and night. Some said they even hear cars racing.

Ruthi Cintron’s home butts up against SE Green River Parkway. She’s now left with a gaping hole in her fence after a car barreled through her fence and backyard around 2 a.m. Sunday.

“This was a gate,” Cintron said. “This is where the car came to. You can see the tire marks, all the way here.”

The chain link fence was left bent and twisted on the ground.

Police said the driver went off the road along Green River Parkway, hit the fence and then took off.

“My daughter came in my room and said, ‘Mom you need come outside,'” Cintron said. “She went to let the dogs out and realized we don’t have a fence.”

Seth Conley’s wooden fence next door was also damaged.

“There was a post here and a gate and they knocked it down, and then they hit this,” Conley said as he showed the broken fence.

Neighbors said speeding along the parkway is a big problem.

“You can hear them; they’re probably going 80-90 mph out here, if I had to guess,” said Conley.

Cintron said she’s seen and heard cars racing down the stretch overnight. She found a hellcat emblem in her yard and thinks it belongs to a Dodge Challenger.

“There’s no police back here and it’s dark, and this is a quick throughway to wherever they’re going back and forth,” Cintron said.

Police tell CBS12 they haven’t had complaints about racing, but Cintron’s social media post about Sunday’s crash sparked plenty of reaction.

One person commented, “Crazy. I used to live at the end of Walton and Green River Parkway. Sometimes people race there.”

Another person wrote, “It sounds like a drag strip at night, especially Friday and Saturday nights.”

While police don’t believe the car was racing before the crash, Cintron is hoping this doesn’t happen again.

“They start cutting each other off. It’s insanity,” Cintron said. “There is children back here and it’s not fair that we have to be worried.”

Police said they’ll continue to have officers patrolling the area during the day and overnight.
