Looks like the perfect intersection for a proper roundabout. That should prevent any head-on collision to the home. Would also have the added benefit of making the whole interaction safer.

I still can't believe how often cars drive in to buildings and how nothing changes in North America.

You learn when you get older here, things don't get fixed, not because they cost too much, but because it isn't good in the long run for capitalism.

I would bet cancer could be cured, but then there is no money coming in for the treatments.

The situation is an easy fix, I don't know enough about traffic to know it, but something is preventing it, most likely someone's pockets getting filled.

Commercial places often put concrete decorative boulders, residentials decorative rocks or boulders or a planter w/ a low retaining wall.
