Google video is fun

Was watching that comic doing all the dances (he was on cnn.com, apparently seen 18 million times on youtube and he's making another one)

http://www.cnn.com/2006/TECH/interne....ap/index.html

Anywho, I was checking out the top 100 and this was pretty interesting. It's a video of people driving on ice, particularly on one road.

The thing I don't get is why that one lady jumped out of the drivers seat...that's pretty stupid.

I can see how that can happen, with my limited snow-driving experience, but all of the cars that hit the other cars either had their wheels turned to the left or straight, and all were on full brake, as far as I could tell, making them hockey pucks. Get onto the snowy part under the car for traction early, if you have to, turn your wheel at that time into the curb, or just stay where you are and miss the other cars. That Jag is lucky his airbags didn't go off. At least it's all minor bumper damage. Even the fwd cars didn't make out so well (for all of the fwd fans who buy cars here in NOLA with the justification that "they're better for snow" though it snows in NOLA once, for about a day, about every 3-4 years if that.
