+This error occurs when there is insufficient information for the rust compiler
+to prove that some time has a long enough lifetime.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0311
+use std::borrow::BorrowMut;
+
+trait NestedBorrowMut<U, V> {
+    fn nested_borrow_mut(&mut self) -> &mut V;
+}
+
+impl<T, U, V> NestedBorrowMut<U, V> for T
+where
+    T: BorrowMut<U>,
+    U: BorrowMut<V>, // error: missing lifetime specifier
+{
+    fn nested_borrow_mut(&mut self) -> &mut V {
+        self.borrow_mut().borrow_mut()
+    }
+}
+```
+
+In this example we have a trait that borrows some inner data element of type `V`
+from an outer type `T`, through an intermediate type `U`. The compiler is unable
+to prove that the livetime of `U` is long enough to support the reference. To
+fix the issue we can explicitly add lifetime specifiers to the `NestedBorrowMut`
+trait, which link the lifetimes of the various data types and allow the code to
+compile.
+
+Working implementation of the `NestedBorrowMut` trait:
+
+```
+use std::borrow::BorrowMut;
+
+trait NestedBorrowMut<'a, U, V> {
+    fn nested_borrow_mut(& 'a mut self) -> &'a mut V;
+}
+
+impl<'a, T, U, V> NestedBorrowMut<'a, U, V> for T
+where
+    T: BorrowMut<U>,
+    U: BorrowMut<V> + 'a, // Adding lifetime specifier
+{
+    fn nested_borrow_mut(&'a mut self) -> &'a mut V {
+        self.borrow_mut().borrow_mut()
+    }
+}
+```
