It was just being driven too fast and went off the road hitting a tree.

Ice was the problem there.

At least you managed to save damaging the wheel-trim.

Was that you car Robert! Didn't notice much wrong with you last time I say you. Hope you didn't get injured there! Ice is a killer, I'm scared of little but I get nervous when I notice icy roads.

Yep, that was indeed mine Jaap, that happened 3 years ago.

Now I am very fussy about tyres and winter tyres.

ESP helps.
