Before a Mercedes at me was lexus is 200.
And time on descent I have given to gas, as a result I drift 50 metres, the car is not subject to restoration, and at me fracture of clavicle.
After that to drift I concern with big apprehension and I try not to lead up to it.

I've just been on a trip to Norway, one night I was driving on those mountain roads with a speed of 80km/h in heavy rain. The road was in bad conditon with a lot of water just sitting there. I was thinking that I'm driving a 4x4 so I would be safe at that speed but suddenly the car drifted for about 50-60 meters and into the left hand lane, ESP lamp was blinking and I took my foot off the gaspedal. I feel so lucky that nothing happend and I'm certain that it was the ESP that saved me on that curvy bad conditioned road

Problem is that them constantly spinning on the wet road and after switching-off ESP there was a full control over car.
Watch these videos please in the end.
