A passenger ran out of the car and onto the road before falling over. The driver then ran away from the crash after him.
It is thought the driver lost control in icy conditions when trying to drive around a bend on the 20mph road in Leeds.
It then wiped out fences and garden walls before smashing into the home.

Firefighters and police raced to the scene which has been cordoned off for a forensic examination.
A shocked resident said one of the smashed-up homes had recently been renovated.
The Audi - one of the fastest on UK roads - has a top speed of 184mph.
Residents on the street have called for speed humps to be installed on the road following a spate of anti-social driving.
One person who was there said: “Police have said it was an accident and the car slipped on the bend crashing into the houses.
“The fire engine that came to assist almost did the same."
