“What a naughty, tree, these trees keep on hitting the cars after closing time, the trees should have their branches taken off them, poor drivers have no chance.
Look at the cost to the NHS,, the drivers insurance should pay £500,000 to the NHS, nothing to the driver, He should have his license taken off him for life.
Going out armed to kill.”
