As for vibs comment above, in a sence he is right, in that you won't apporach that roundabout at that speed again and if you do get into the same situation again, you know how your car will respond to the inputs you make, be it steering, braking, more power etc.. It is probably a bit annoying at the min, but in the long term it can only help to make you a better driver, as you now know who to approach the situation....

so you were not driving too fast then on approach to a roundabout because you thought your car was a race car and could handle the weather conditions. as a result you crashed while being a named driver and probably not covered FC. if thats wrong then I'm sorry to have got your discription of the event wrong.

I did but someone was being abusive towards me for no reason so I replied and got even more abuse. he posted to get a reaction from people and he got some. why is he complaining about it

Nightmare mate. I did something similar on a bend last year (right outside one of my mates house.) Main thing is your ok and nobody else got hurt. I just realised when I crashed that there is no point in pushing your luck as if I'd have killed someone I wouldn't have been able to live with myself. Guess thats probably what you're feeling now.

did you report the accident to the police?
did you damage the crash barrier?
if so you could well be looking at having to pay to get that repaired on top of the cost of you repairing your car
bad luck mate
