I love when the guys first reaction to hitting a pole and getting rear ended it lighting a cigarette

[@Marnee4191]

Ah-yep, no need to get excited in Minnesota. If something interrupts your day and might cause you stress, well, then, best just keep calm and pretend like it's no big thing. Ah-yep.

[@Lukevil91]

Yeah thats because its the first thing he does after getting rear ended by his boyfriend

[@irmadeleon3976]

Lmaooo he needed sum light

[@BIGDAWGSYT]

I think it was normal for him

[@paulpena5040]

I was driving in these conditions one day and a guy behind me was flashing his lights and honking because I was "going too slow". He finallly got frustrated and whipped around me in his 4x4 and IMMEDIATELY lost control of his vehicle and slammed into a guardrail. I have to confess I smiled.

[@mindyschocolate]

I had something similar happen to me too. It was super icy and we were all sliding. Here comes this roundabout so we were going even slower going through it. I had about four car lengths between me and truck in front, who was at same speed as me. Sedan behind me gets pissy and speeds past us and as he came even with the truck, the truck slides and does a 45 into the car. I initially thought they hit, but both kept driving. That truck must have missed him by 1/2 and inch. Did the car learn anything? Nope, not even when he continued speeding and passed a jeep in the ditch. Don’t know if he ever wrecked or not.

Ive had that happen to me before. I was in torrential, and I mean lose traction at 15MPH and no visible lines kind of rain. So I went 15! Dude behind me laying on horns and speeding around me on the 1-laner. I imagine he didn't make it very far in that storm. I was 18 at the time, so it was very scary and new to me.

I watch these videos at the beginning of the snow and ice season to remind me of how easy it is to lose control of a car, and that reducing speed, increasing distance, scanning conditions ahead, and anticipating stops and turns, are essential measures.

***** Haha, yup, when that happens, the fat lady is fine tuning her vocal chords. Better to admit defeat with dignity than raise a right hoo-ha about it. Thanks once again for sharing your footage with us, nice one. :) Stay safe. Oh, question: What does American law say about the use of tyre-chains in icy conditions? I'm hazarding a guess here that it's not compulsory, (lol), but does it say it's advised, or something like that?

[@SceneArtisan]

***** Chains being allowed in most areas, begs a question,.. why do so few motorists use them? Ok, granted, when you set out in your car and it's light flurries, you're not likely to want to spent and hour or so changing all your tyres to get chains on; I suppose it only becomes apparent that chains are needed when it's too late - ie, when you're sliding backwards into a gully, lol. Maybe tyres need chains built into them,.. 1st mode would be normal tyres, 2nd mode would be chains deployed, at the flick of a switch. The pneumatic tyre has a lot to answer for and it's hardly changed since its conception.

[@PotatoGunsRule]

[@InigaMontoya]

David Stevenson Maybe you're just not aware as to how the rubber is different with winter tires David, In extreme cold temperatures, the tread rubber of an all season or summer tire stiffens and becomes less able to provide sufficient traction (it can be equivalent to ice tires trying to drive on ice road) To combat this, tread rubber compounds of winter tires are designed to remain flexible and soft, allowing the tire to grip the road better.

[@multi_arm]

It's pretty easy to drive on ice is you are light on the brakes and the throttle. You also should try to avoid steering as much as possible, and steer slightly and take corners widely. If you spin out, you should go light on the brakes and counter steer as much as possible to get yourself back in a straight line. Not saying you shouldn't be careful on ice.

+IngeniousFirefly yes you are right, that friction is created but is only beneficial when your tire speed decreases.. that's when physics generate forward momentum... but most of these individuals in this video, floor the accelerator and don't allow for any forward momentum to build. the forward force is to great for the tire to grip. If these drivers would bring their rpm up then let the rpm fall the tire would start to slow and transfer that power to the ground.

[@xscfti]

4:49 okay but that was so smooth.

[@user-ge2qn6gp4o]

I love the idiot at 3:45 that after spinning out on ice proceeds to pull out in front of other vehicles and stop on the same ice patch. Amazed he wasn't hit.

Best bedtime show to watch. Looks so cold.

[@sivayamsiva9343]

Really very dangerous driving, please take care

[@Richphotos1]

People with 4wd think they are invincible LOL.

[@GANTZ100pts]

Richphotos1 people that have 4 wheel drive need to learn that they should have winter tires to.

[@Richphotos1]

Winter tires are a waste of money. Good set of AT tires and some common sense to drive for the conditions is plenty good. I have lived in MN my whole life and never once did my family or anyone I know spend money on winter tires with out an issue. Hell, I have a 2wd Trailblazer now with a good set of AT tires and wont have an issue this winter.

[@cheesedeer4422]

I used to drive a tow truck. The first people in the ditch during a storm have 4wd. The next are the gawkers looking at the 4wd in the ditch who then follow them in.

[@MrJshsedgwick]

I guess its a good thing no one said to put AT on a car, 4x4 on the other hand...

[@TheMausymaus]

I can't even. This is seriously AMAZING. Non of these drivers'd last a day up in Canada.

[@maxsdad538]

I LOVE winter driving... but, being from Los Angeles, I'm also the biggest candyass on the road. Slow lane behind a line of 15mph trucks? No problem.

[@frankkolton1780]

Being that you're a driver from a warm weather state, you are incredibly wise about winter driving on snow covered highways. What is amazing about this video is that many of these accidents are in Minnesota, there was even a MN cop that was spinning his wheels like crazy from over acceleration, I guess bad winter drivers are not just a geographic phenomenon. To be fair, many of accidents were on ice, which of course you have zero control on, it's already too late by the time you discover you're on a patch or a section of it.

[@gus2600]

If you live in an area that experiences ice and snow storms like I do , here is a word of advice . Stay off the roads unless you absolutely can't help it . Always carry snow chains , and emergency supplies that includes some very warm clothes ,[ you may have to get away from your car to avoid someone crashing into it ], in your car in case you break down or are stranded because of an accident .

[@seanalvarez1723]

7:49 if your car sounds like my blender, you shouldn't be driving in this

If your blender sound like squeaky tires then its time for a new blender

That last one, though. What a great save!

I'd be interested in the rest of the views of the politician who runs on that platform. Free HPDE for all? Tax breaks for manual cars?

[@PokeHunter-jz1hw]

00:44 he's just smokin like nothing happened

[@MageBlackstone]

I also noticed that he lit up a cigarette. Probably the best thing to do in that situation.

[@Kicksno1fan]

Poke Hunter3120 Hes covering up the smell of his weed

[@magicalphoenix]

Here's a tip from my experience if you drive a pickup truck like I do, in the snowy/icy conditions put cinder blocks or something else real heavy in your truck bed, it will help you with traction and helps keep you from fish-tailing. I don't have 4wheel drive, I'm just rear wheel drive. People look at me crazy sometimes when I suggest this but it really does help.

[@FluffyBuzzard2TheMax]

Rwd in the snow ain't the best idea, but if you do, an engine block or bags of cement in the back will help loads

[@AS-uy9gn]

When I had driven cars I would leave a couple of bags of salt in the trunk to weigh the car down. Sand would have been better in case a bag broke but you go with what you've got.

[@Kharnellius]

Bags of salt are best since you can use it to melt ice if you get stuck on an icey patch.

[@TeeroyHammermill]

Just use winter tires.

[@tylerheinisch688]

I use some old railroad ties that we have lying around. Throw in a container of kitty litter for any extra needed traction with some appropriate tires and I’m all set.

[@brpeters8760]

Living in Florida 70 years I love watching these videos. I’ll take a hurricane anytime.

[@kjrey9878]

I love that last guy! In the moment, that would have been my reaction exactly. "Umm...not good" 😄

[@danielplowright5701]

I swear the one guy spinning out took a sip of his coffee.

[@4bimmer_ee_bmw_tuning_parts]

Please let some Americans know about winter tires

[@cjstar01jones17]

Lol I live in Alaska and I don’t have winter tires. But... I do have 4 wheel drive sooo I’m doing better than most of them

[@aic5073]

Ya because winter tires dont control drivers that shouldn't be driving in these conditions when they don't have the skills....but ya, the media says you better have them so go get some...

[@French20cent]

Honestly I feel bad for the man in the Nissan : he didn't manage to stop in time to let enough space to the guy coming from the right, so he tried to give it the beans to let space behind him. He hits the lamp post. The guy coming from the right hits him anyway. I'd light my cigarette too.

[@topdoge9168]

The second one he lights a cigarette lol 🚬🚬🚬

[@koralr33fer79]

that one was gold...."maybe if I rev limit this bad boii I'll get better traction"

[@kwebster62]

He was an idiot just for pulling out in front of moving traffic in icy conditions.

[@modelrc9500]

Lol some cars spin out and drive away like nothing happened

[@REVO515]

Welcome to Minnesota

[@Applejack1396]

Well what else are you supposed to do? Sit there and block traffic while pondering your life choices?

yeah lol i hate *those* types

[@DRUCO316]

Paintball SKILLZ what are you suppose to do. just put it in park.

[@modelrc9500]

Applejack1396 I mean at least see if there ok...well depends on how bad it is

[@kjones8554]

There is something so graceful about the skid. And then ker-chunk.

[@nordemoniac]

I love it when people are like "Hmm, I'm losing traction, what to do? FULL POWEEEEEER!!! RAAAAAAAH!!!"

[@nthgth]

It's no worse than that other lot: "Conditions slightly different from every other time I've driven? Slam the brakes, slam the brakes!"

[@Argantonis]

Why do most people seem to think if their car is slipping, giving more gas is the answer?
