A snowstorm on the morning of Jan 16th 2007 left about 3-4 inches of snow on the ground in Portland, Oregon. This is what happens to people with too much confidence in their 4WD and zero experience driving on icy snow.

Or rather a hill.
You know how you drive in ice and snow? You don’t drive. You wait for the snow to get plowed off the road.

This may not be true for everyone driving in the video, but I’m pretty sure that they just aren’t used to driving in the snow and don’t know how. It looks to me like it isn’t even more than an inch or so deep. I drive in snow worse than that almost every winter and have never wrecked. You cant drive the same in these kind of conditions as you do normally. That last car was sliding very fast, he would have needed to build up a lot of momentum for that, most of these people are just being reckless because they aren’t used to the conditions.

My God can you imagine the insurance bill those drivers will have to pay to the 5+ cars they hit?
Really stupid people. Never drive in those conditions!

I saw that happening. I live in Portland, and most people just didn’t know how to drive in the snow and ice. It usually never gets like that here. Plus, a lot of drivers in Porland suck at driving anyway.

snow STORM?? bullshit. 3-4 inches is not a storm. Sure, the driving conditions were shitty because of ice underneath it all, but let me tell you, living in Saskatchewan, 3-4 inches is not a storm.

that’s funny shit, they were all braking but just sliding, not mentioning any names but someone in a previous post said it was less than and inch of snow, someone obviously didnt read the description.
