3rd row, 1st video.

These are some hilarious car crashes that happen every few minutes. Lesson is to never drive on ice. Have you guys ever lost control of your car before? I have, its freakin scary.

several years ago here I was driving my then ford ('82 LTD). I aqua-planed like a champ @ 60.. had the steering wheel full lock left.. car kept going straight... full lock right... kept going straight. I managed to pulse my brakes a bit and that got me traction. Definate brown trouser moment that was.

then there was also the time where i slid the back end out of same car and complete 360'd.. and no i wasn't hooning. just gave it a little to much punch and there must've been a slippery patch (was winter)

The way they "clean" the roads in the US is stupid (around here at least). They throw down what they call "Brine" which melts the first part of the snow, but when the brine washes away it leaves some streets solid ice (the ones they can't get the chem. trucks to quick enough) and as a result, this is what happens.
