LONDON -- Some drivers simply refuse to panic, even when things go badly wrong.
The elderly car owner in the footage below, which was recorded via CCTV at a petrol station in Wales and shared on Facebook by Sian Jones -- is clearly a master of keeping a cool head under pressure.
In the video we see the woman's car suddenly go up on two wheels as she clips the curb while coming out of the station; rather than panicking though she casually styles it out, coasting for a couple of seconds before landing safely down on the tarmac.

Let's have a look at that one more time (note the reaction of the people getting into the Ford in the foreground of the shot).

To be fair, you really can't fault that recovery.
Jones said the driver -- who she described as being an "old lady" in her "early 80s" -- was not "fazed at all" by the incident.
"The old woman was fine, that's the reason I shared it," wrote Jones in a separate comment. "She said she was only going to Newport."
