Snow Driving! Yay!

So its officially getting to be blizzard like conditions out here. I just got out of school about 25 minutes ago and I took a video of the drive home just for funs. Ended up losin a bit of traction while comin up to the stop sign and my tail slid to the right a bit. Other than that it was a decent drive home, couldn't see anything though. I apologize for the quality, as its my motorola cliq phone and not a good camera lol. Also apologize for the crappy music, damn radio dj's screwed me over on that one.

YouTube - Snow Driving 2.1.2011

SKIP to about the 2:10 mark. I had to pull out of the parking lot first and that wasn't very exciting so i just kept the camera down lol

Also here is a picture

I can't even count how many idiots I passed on the highway this morning. One dope in a Ranger tried keeping up with me and ended up spinning out into a snowbank. So dumb.

Definitely. Only fun if you find a good parking lot to slide around in. One year my buddy and I took his Yaris and went into a parking lot of a Menards that closed down, and it was so much fun. It was bouncin all over the place

So your recording while driving in those conditions?

I was waiting for a comment like this. You're completely right. It was dumb to do that, but I'm here now aren't I. Made it home okay. If my balt was at the junkyard, then you could truly call me an idiot
