Holy crap. The number of people with locked up wheels, not turning into slides, gunning gas, and all the other things you shouldn't do is amazing.

And WTF is up with the people passing each other? Seriously?

There has to be a layer of ice under that snow. That's pretty bad even for people who can't drive in the snow.

Driving through CT on Saturday to NY in the snow storm the only person who passed me was some guy with Florida plates. :-o

It looks very slick for sure, but there's plenty of really stupid maneuvers that don't make matters any better.

...these people are pros:

In Utah nonetheless! Damn.


That person driving in the center of the highway was funny as hell. Assuming no one got hurt. I lost it when they got air during the last few seconds. I'm thinking the guy shooting the vid had less of a change of being consumed by their stupidity if he was ahead of them.

Damnit, you just ruined a great video.

Actually, I'm going to disbeleive reality and insert one of my own.

Car full of teen agers stole a car and went for a joy ride. All is well with the world.
