As said, but watch this closely, passes me quite stable but a bit further on guns it, look at the black smoke , not once but twice, clearly accelerating but then problems, my guess he was having a ding dong with his girl, cannot see any other reason why you should drive like that, whatever they were very lucky, had conditions been other than perfect it could have been a different story, we arrived good as gold at our site an hour latter, Rick

Thanks Elt, all done, never used FB before although had an account since 2016, just wanted to try and contact the people involved to give them a copy, did not have time to exchange details at the time, Rick

Hopefully they were all ok.

Do you know what struck me, was that xtrail trying to go passed everyone to find a way through?
 
As far as I could tell everyone was physically OK but shock was on the cards, Rick
