A Lanarkshire family have told of their lucky escape after their car crashed down an embankment at a "death trap" area this week.
Gary and Louise Nicholson were driving out of Lanark with their two young children, aged two, and six months, on Monday when the vehicle skidded at a bend on Cleghorn Road.
It went off-road sideways hitting trees and narrowly avoided toppling over before two trees stopped it in a ditch.
