wow...what a moron...

"lets gas it, maybe the car will go staright"

 

wow thats just unreal looking... altho the first person had an intersting style of driving on a icy hill....

 

What you can't really tell from that video other than the speed of the slippy cars is how steep those hills are.

I normally drive right through that intersection on the way to work, but what with the conditions yesterday, I stuck to a flatter route.

And yes, that last one was an outback. The fire truck was only there for a few minutes to try to communicate to people that they shouldn't trying to be driving up and down hills in the snow/ice before it was hit by two cars. It was and still is a little bit of madness up here. Folks just aren't used to it.

Just think of what 3 inches of snow would do to SF!

 

I like that at the end the fire truck parks in the middle of the road to stop anyone else from sliding all the way down the street.

 

Hmmmm, today looks like a day I should drive..... maybe not... crunch.... bam.... look out!!!!
