    What is it with people and snow?

    It’d be one thing if they continued driving like it was a sunny day, but some people decide a snow day is the day to start their career as a rally driver.

      Guilty, I have a standard transmission AWD car and it is so much fun to drift corners in the snow!

      I never do it in traffic or near other drivers, though. They don’t deserve to pay for the consequences of my stupidity.

        That’s the job of the insurance company when they raise everyone’s rates…

    Good to see this community in the fediverse, now I can skyrocket my blood pressure back into the stratosphere watching dangerous jerks crash their dumb cars.

    Anyone have another link to the video? That sounds funny as hell and this one isn’t working for me.

    Was driving to work at 4am one day on a really fuckin awful town side road on a really shitty day with fuck tons of snow. Came to the series of S curves in the road with a big stupid truck right on my ass. We met a state plow who should not have been in that road and looked to be pulled off to the side of the road quite a bit for us to go around. As we passed his plow it became very obvious that he was parked with his ass end almost completely blocking the road. I have no idea how i made it past him without smashing my car but the douchebag behind me was obv not skilled or lucky enough and was up my ass enough that he ended up in a ditch.

    Fuck that guy.

    EDIT: WE > He. He ended up in the ditch, i did not. Wtf phone.

      Hooray!

      That is sooo satisfying. I hate tailgaters. Just relax, dammit, we’ll get there.
