Driving on ice - don’t do it
Ok. If a road is clearly impassable, and there are tons of cars piling up. Do not drive your car down the hill. And, do not get out of your car when other cars are smashing into yours.
Videos like this will help the rest of us, and our insurance companies. But I bet there is a ton of auto-body guys loving every second of it.
Icy road conditions - watch on Viddler
I mean come on! I’ve seen videos like this before, but the guy that hits the gas is just crazy.
Can you drive? Hah.

Why do they keep trying to get through there? Don’t they know what happened to the first car?

Ronald: A lot of times people don’t know that something is “impassable”. I think that is the main problem. Seeing someone else in an accident doesn’t immediately make you think that you will have no choice into getting in one too.
All kidding aside, it is really unfortunate to see things like this - but you have to wonder about the guy/gal that was holding down their accelerator the entire time. People that live above the snow line really should look to getting some lessons in driving on slick surfaces.
