[QUOTE="berkeman, post: 6849412, member: 8921"] Thanks for dredging up old dreadful memories... :wink: I managed to crash my small BMW 2002 into a giant Oak Tree in the Napa Valley on the first rain day of the year many years ago (very slippery roads) at about 50mph when I slid sideways in a turn and almost recovered it but lost it trying to then avoid oncoming traffic. I definitely bounced backward off of that giant Oak Tree, despite the excellent crush zones in that car (for the era -- mid 1970s). [/QUOTE]
