I swear it was snow ... ( 9 months ago by zacy28)
I swear it was snow. I saw this video like forty times all day long. I'm certain it was snow.
He wasn't pressing ... ( 9 months ago by gorgegirl4)
He wasn't pressing his foot on the gas, it is a steep hill and he was sliding down it without a sled!
I drive this road ... ( 9 months ago by salemcripple)
I drive this road all the time. And it's VERY steep, and on that day there was a solid sheet of ice under the snow. Youre tires arn't going to catch traction, rolling or not, in a zero friction enviroment, on that steep of a slope. But what you said is good advice none the less, for flat road driveing.
Acualy he's right! ... ( 9 months ago by salemcripple)
Acualy he's right! There are a whole lot of California transpants here, and i do mean A WHOLE HELL OF A LOT! Just my street alone, out of 11 houses, there are two hispanic familys (from south of the boarder), two native Oregonian familys (includeing my own), and the rest are from Cali. My friend, who just moved into a newly built sub-division, almost every single car on his street, still has California plates. And yes, they are notorisly bad drivers when it comes to snow!
Acualy it WAS ice, ... ( 9 months ago by salemcripple)
Acualy it WAS ice, covered by about an inch of snow. We had freezing rain half the night, covering everything, EVERYTHING with atleast an inch of solid ice. Then it started snowing, Then after that, it froze again, all in one night!
It is true that ... ( 9 months ago by salemcripple)
It is true that people here don't know how to drive in the snow. And it's true that we don't have alot of snow plows here, because it never snows. But even the best of "snow drivers" wouldn't have been able to get down this hill without a fight (the BMW got lucky). And we don't use salt on the roads, because it's bad for the roads, bad for the cars, and bad for the enviroment. Instead we use a bio degradeable substute. And even then, only on main roads.
I don't care how ... ( 8 months ago by pharrison666)
I don't care how many wheel drive you have, going down a hill covered in ice you really have no options, regardless of your driving ability. The only thing you can do is use chains/studs. On a steep hill you dont have a choice but to brake.

i think it's understandable that it's hard to drive in snow. but rain? you should see the idiots that can't drive in the rain!
The problem isn't ... ( 4 months ago by Andrewcranky)
The problem isn't the rain, per-say.
It's the oil and grime that collectes on the streat, and then forms an oily film on the road when it rains after a long dry spell.

It'd have been great if after the fire truck got to the scene the firemen sprayed the street with water and then drove off.
Wow. That's REALLY ... ( 1 month ago by phantom240)
Wow. That's REALLY sad that people suck that bad at driving in snow. I could understand that I suck at driving in snow because my car is 1) not really good in snow to begin with and 2) I've only done it a couple times... but for someone who LIVES there to suck... that's bad.
