I'm only slightly behind the times as this video is 8.5 years old, but I had never seen it. Pretty darn funny

This stuff never ceases to amaze me. Was it really foggy to where people couldn't see too far up ahead? Wouldn't be surprised if there were multiple fatalities

No fog, but icy. Probably

133 vehicles, at least 6 dead so far, probably a couple of em from this video, which is wild.

Watching those wheels spin on a flat surface really gives some perspective on how slick that is

Yep!

And texas drivers are absolutely horrible in any kind of slick roads. We drove from San Antonio to Omaha one time when they were getting snow from waco on up. Never saw so many vehicles in the ditch

Sooners women's softball hit a record 13 HRs in a 29-0 route. That's pretty damn impressive

my experience in NC is that not only is it the southern drivers that are not use to driving in snow conditions, its the northern transplants that think its the same as driving on snow. The further south you go, the less it is snow and more it turns to ice when it hits concrete / asphalt. Snow at least provides some level of traction, physics takes over on ice (whatever direction and speed you are going when you hit it, you keep going in that direction at that speed) I prefer snow over ice 100% of the time.

I always give my son a "safety brief" when he is heading to work or school. "Remember you have 4 wheel drive but you don't have 4 wheel stop. Drive like you want to stay alive"

Same line we use and stress around here. Depending on the loadout on the vehicle, that nice 4wd machine may weigh 600+ lbs more than a 2wd.

Figured it would be colder in Canada than it is Omaha. We are up to -21F this morning, wind-chill it's -35°. I am so over the cold, but at least we have power unlike Bama. He was without power for almost 6 hours last night
