Wow... that's slippery! turning up the sound is essential, but there is some borderline NSFW language
Hopefully I haven't pissed off the karma gods by chuckling at the bad fortune in the video. There's a longer version where they actually talk about someone trying to stop traffic before the hill, which was the question I kept thinking about watching this shorter verison. It doesn't appear that anyone got hurt but there's enough vehicle damage to keep the body shops in work for a while!
Hey maybe the karma gods already got me yesterday. I wondered why my radio wasn't working well in the car ... turns out someone removed my antenna! I was filling up with gas and just looking at my car when I realized it was gone. Sheesh.
Man, that's a whole lotta stupid for one street. I like snow but I'm really glad I don't live in it, I'm sure I'd be one of those idiots sliding down the street.
I drive that intersection most weeks once or twice. There was another intersection in town the same day with an equally hairy situation, only the hill is much steeper. That was the one that I'd driven through before the snow arrived, bringing Mrs. Hun and New Baby Hun home from the hospital.
