Tree fell on me whilst driving. Think my Clio is for the scrap heap. (with footage)

Wow...great news that you're ok, and as mentioned above newspaper website would probably love that video/story. I can't help think that I'd have swerved all over the place with the shock of the impact.
 
I saw this after reading the OP's post in MM here - you're very lucky to be alive. If you had been travelling any faster, it might have landed on the roof of your car and possibly you. :eek:

I would be tempted to buy a few lottery tickets if I were you. ;):D
 
will be interesting to hear if the insurance claim is against the bordering land owners ? whether the insurance company w/legal-aid will identify them.
How much did it weigh then ?
 
I've had a tree fall in front of my car at night, doing 25mph in a storm down a coastal road, emergency stop... it really **** me up, especially as there are a line of trees there!
 
Lucky that the tree seems to have been fairly rotten and disintegrated as it impacted. Anything more solid could have ended up bad.

I’m sure they will get to the root of it...
 
Wow, could have been a lot worse, glad you're okay!

Really took me by surprise.

Seemed like a snap decision on the tree's part to fall on you when it did.
