I SLID ON BLACK ICE COASTING DOWN A SMALL HILL ON THE ROADWAY DOING 35 MPH IN A 45 MPH ZONE. THE MOMENTUM & WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE MADE THE VEHICLE VEER OFF THE ROAD INTO A PINE TREE. DESPITE MY BEST EFFORTS TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS & STEER IN THE DIRECTION WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS SLIDING (AS WE WERE ALWAYS TAUGHT TO DO), I HAD NO CONTROL OVER WHERE MY VEHICLE WAS GOING. I HIT A PINE TREE RATHER HARD. MY FRIEND WAS TRAVELING BEHIND ME & WATCHED IT HAPPEN. I HIT (BRUISED) MY ARM & KNEE BUT DIDN'T REQUIRE AN AMBULANCE. THE FRAME, FENDER, HOOD & HEADLIGHT ALL GOT CRUMPLED. LUCKILY THE STEEL FRAME, HEAVY LARGE TOW HOOK IN FRONT & STEEL BUMPER TOOK MOST OF THE FORCE CAUSING THOSE PARTS & THE STEEL COMPLETE FRAME (INCLUDING THE LEAF SPRINGS UNDERNEATH) TO CRUMPLE UNDER IMPACT....
