Easily done as most kent lanes have at the very least a slight side slope to them, then add in the chalk and some water and away you go.
In the summer lovely lanes and sights, in the wet months potential death traps, some with very big drops into the fields below, lots and lots of them have TRO for the winter months especially around Ashford.

Yes it was in north Kent, I was goign to go along today but got some nights over time instead so did not. However the person driving was on his first off road expirience by all accounts and yes the only real damage was a small 50p dent. Took them about an hour to winch out by all accounts and a good job it was looking at it.MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

So why did he fear off to the side like that. The track looked OK as far as I could see.

We were invited to that! It's our local off road/landy group! They are a very helpful bunch of guys! The chap who's car it was had never been off roading before! Very unlucky if you ask me! However it has been spoken about lots that, that particular lane is getting dangerous 2009 Discovery 3 HSE - Gone

Well hes new to off road so tried to avoid the lump on the left, doesnt matter what tyres you have side slopes are even minor ones.
Ooops, sorry, missed that!I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Wow he was very unlucky to get caught out like that. But also very lucky that it was almost a slow motion roll over. Just shows you how you can get caught out on even the simplest looking tracks.
