Another motoring story from Auto Windscreens
A car's windscreen was damaged in Cumbria recently when a tree fell onto the vehicle.
Eileen Whitehall and her husband were driving along the A590 towards Swarthmoor when the tree fell, the North-West Evening Mail reports.
Ms Whitehall's daughter Joanne McDonald said that her father was not hurt in the freak accident but that her mother had sustained a number of injuries.
"Hopefully in time everything will heal, but it's obviously going to be a long process," she told the newspaper.
"There was nobody directly behind mum and dad. It could have been worse if there was other traffic on the road," Ms McDonald added.
The Highways Agency cut back the trees on the side of the road on Thursday (February 10th).
Earlier this month, the Melton Weekly reported that a branch fell from a tree and damaged the car glass of a vehicle recently in East Moorabool, in the Australian state of Victoria.
