Car drivers are the worst on the road. I have no sympathy for those who crash due to their bad driving. It makes the roads safer for the rest of us.

That's a bit harsh! Where does it state that he crashed due to bad driving? I hope he is ok!

I have used the A24 twice a day, 5 times a week for 20 years and have never seen any tree on it. I hope he or she is prosecuted.
