Three point turns, reversing round corners, emergency stops, mirror, signal, manoeuvre….just a few tips our driving instructors embed into us for our driving lives but this is certainly one skill not to remember……..flipping your car!!
Yes you heard correctly, a learner driver managed to flip the Fiat 500 she was driving onto its roof after hitting a gatepost whilst crossing a junction. Both the instructor and driver managed to crawl from the car and were treated for minor cuts while the Fiat suffered smashed windows and windscreen.
No matter how an experienced driver you are accidents do happen and that’s why AXA Direct offer great car insurance deals with many added benefits to cover all situations. Our comprehensive insurance covers windscreen and glass breakage and with our AXA plus scheme you may even be able to reward yourself with an AXA leisure break.
