OMG!!! That's pretty bad, mind you that ZT appears to have protected it's occupants well bearing in mind it hit a tree and they have a habit of not giving an inch! I know, I've been there.......... I wasn't driving I hasten to add!

Happened only a few miles up the road from me,

Was in all the local papers.

Seeing the mess it was lucky everyone escaped from that with their lives!

I'm glad they all got out but I won't be 'testing' mine.

One of the last things you need to hit is a tree, as said they don't give.

Yet another example of how our cars are so strongly built. Let's all slow down guys?
