@ 3:36... where the fuck is that car going? Looks almost like he slide into a HOUSE!


P.S. And the tow company made thousands that day. :fuckyea:

Bahahaha. More like driving without ANY skill at all.

Thats due to freezing rain not snow and some of the drivers are retarded like that old Dakota. That infiniti Ex35 drove really well.

Ex35 @ 1:20 just held on his brakes, abs saved him.
He also hit the curb twice.
Now the wagon @ 1:04 got some good drifting action.

Poor trailblazer SS @4:03. I really wanted him to make it. He was doing such a good job dodging the red honda CR-V only to slam into the snow plow.

I know it's hard to react in situations like these but would it have been possible to save the SS by putting it in reverse? It makes me want to head to an empty parking lot and test out different theories on how to save a slide in snow. But we all know how that ends.

The solution was to not go down that hill. According to the author of the video, drivers were warned by other people and cops that going down that road was gonna be slippery. They weren't sliding on snow, either. There's a sheet of ice under that powder.

Jokes aside, I get going down a hill with snow and ice is a bad idea to begin with but I'm just curious to know how different inputs could affect the car. I guess that's what winter driving school is for.

lots of cars out of control..Even after the drivers were warned not to go down the hill by people at the top and cops.

Even the cockiest of all people thought they would make it through. Instead they fall in a ditch or hit a car. :suspicious::suspicious:

dee242 01-27-2012 02:10 AM

i would love 2 se a subie or evo try get up that hill

bloodmack 01-27-2012 12:50 PM

^ ice is ice man unless your decked out in gear for snow, your avg driver is not going to make it up that.

Lomac 01-27-2012 02:47 PM

Maybe I'm morbid but I always enjoy watching these sort of videos. :lol

I've gone through an accident similar to these (through no fault of my own, fwiw), so I guess I can kinda relate to some of these people.
