…And everyone slammed on their brakes to stare at the first car that slid into the ravine, locking their brakes and sending them skidding into the ravine.

winter tyre fail?
Rather a “thinking that having winter tyres means you don’t have to drive carefully”-fail.
No no no this was a snow storm in the south, and we all know Southerners just can’t drive.
We’sa not useta dat white schtuff naw.
-
Which technically most people scoff when I tell them I’m Southern being from KY…. They don’t believe it’s in the South for some reason.
Notice I left off the “in the snow”, Southern drivers just can’t drive, period.
You throw white stuff in there, and this is what you get.
KY’s the South it’s south of the MAson dixon line, and a large part of the population is married to a fmaily member, and Walmart is the “fancy” store.
Southerners can’t drive huh? Not. Think about how many of the top race drivers in the world come from the south.
Now driving in the snow is something my southern comrades don’t do well, that’s for certain. It’s not something most of us get practice with.
That’s fair. Ok, NASCAR is a very specialised dicipline, but if you don’t know just how good you have to be to do it, dial 1-800-BE-PETTY.
It’s the only time you can leave your left turn signal on and not get the finger from those passeing you…
*passing… damned fingers
Yes, driving in a circle all day sure takes a lot of skill…
*Full disclosure – - Not a NASCAR fan*
I don’t know… I’ve seen highlights of guys travelling 3-inches off of some guys bumper at about 200 mph, with another guy 6-inches to his left, and a concrete wall 4-inches to his right, with another guy 3-inches behind his bumper… not a time to be “twitchy” if you know what I mean.
I mean, I don’t even like being on the freeway in medium to heavy traffic and passing a semi at 75mph with another car 10 feet behind me …
You at least understand the issues than need skill.
NASCAR is NOT the only driving sport in the south. Way to show your ignorance.
And, like MG said, that’s still driving 200mph, 3 inches off the rear bumper of one guy, with another pair beside you. Sometimes for 5 hours. I would be willing to bet you can’t do that.
I can do 120 going down to College Park
*is unimpressed*
Look he’s making a left turn….. look he’s making another left turn….. omg another left turn…… beer.
It makes it a lot easier to understand when you’re drunk.
ILPB, don’t make me kick your a$$. Because I can, and I will
Would you wear leather while doing it? Then I totally would make you kick my a$$
*ponders*
Maybe….
Physics fail. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force. If you’re going straight, you’ll keep going straight unless you do something stupid, like step on the brakes.
Having a vehicle designed for off-road conditions in combination with proper tires goes a long way. There have been very few days that I have to slow down below 45-50mph even in several inches of snow (except to corner of course). Subaru Impreza w/ Blizzaks FTW.
Or just proper skill FTW. I drive a ‘96 Camry with the same tires year round and I rarely have to go below highway speeds either. Knowing how the physics change on ice means you can learn the best ways around it, and that goes a lot farther.
Good point. Plenty of idiots who can’t drive in snow. Tires help, but I used to drive a PoS and I got around just fine then too, just had less fun doing so.
Every winter we get SUVs off the road. 4 wheel drive does NOT give you ice skates for turning, nor pitons in your tires for braking. *sigh*
But you’ll have the coolest 2000-lb toboggan EVAR!!!!!
not really… i’ve got an SUV and trust me, when it’s out of control it’s scary as sh!t. i did pirouettes down the middle of a 3 lane highway one time* with a semi closing in on me because he hit the same black ice i did…
* i didn’t hit the brakes and i’d only been going 25mph anyway but you just can’t stop at all. i stopped when i finally slid off the highway into the snowbank. i was able to back out and get back on the road without a problem but it took a few minutes for my pulse to drop below 300… it’s still slightly terrifying in similar weather conditions because i KNOW what will happen if my car goes out of control.
*from the person in the upside-down SUV in the ditch to my long haul brother* “But I had it in 4WD!”
Him “I have bloody 18WD, and I was going 30.”
When I was in middle school we drove out to Kansas for Christmas, and half way through NM we hit a blizzard. I’m not entirely certain how much of that drive we were actually on the road because it was night and the snow was so thick, I do know when my mom finally convinced my dad to stop for the night (around 2 or 3 in the morning), we were driving through 2-3 feet of snow. And my dad was still going 60 mpst of the way….
1999?
Yeah…Did you see a gold 4runner pass your house around that time?
No, but I did have a gold 4Runner at one time..
If you’re driving through 2, 3 feet of snow, I imagine you kinda have to go that fast? (Yes, yes, I suppose there are tractor-like cars that don’t.)
Winter Driving fail. If you hit a patch of ice, your call will begin to spin (unless of course you have a perfectly balanced car). You’ll keep going in the same direction, but all of a sudden your facing the opposite direction. Not to mention that if you’re going fast and you come across somebody in front of you going too slow, all of a sudden you have to brake (which is the worst thing to do in snow).
The Subaru Impreza is nearly perfectly balanced. The design gets it’s roots in rally racing.
I’ve had the car out on a frozen lake, and I assure you the rear end will not pass the front end just because you hit a patch of glare ice that isn’t covered in snow; unless you pull the e-brake.
The Steve, it isn’t just the car. You have to know how to deal with ice. Sooo many people have no clue. I’ve never had an ‘off-road’ car, but I’ve also not done a 360 or other ice-induced maneuver…except when I want to in a parking lot, of course!
I want the snow to last long enough here so I can take my son to a parking lot and put the car into a skid so I can teach him how to drive out of a skid. I will probably have to drive into the mountains, but I want a BIG parking lot and EMPTY.
Teach him donuts, too!
Hitting the e-brake then sounds like fun actually.
The dynamics are completely different in front-wheel drive cars and those with AWD. It’s pretty hard to get either of those to spin, unless you’re doing it on purpose.
Yes.. On purpose.. Hee hee.
Haha yes and no. Just for the record, I drive in Canada… so I drive in snow a lot. Every once in a while the car will start to fishtail no matter what car/tires you have… as long as you can stay in control during that fishtail you’re fine, but that’s the driver not the car.
Physics fail.
That too. I’m just getting a bit peeved at people who drive as if conditions are perfect in weather like this. I am just as peeved at those who slow down to a crawl though. ;p
That happens in Texas every time it rains. Forget snow. We get a little sprinkle and everyone is either driving 20 miles over the speed limit, or 30 miles under it. God forbid you find a happy medium and NOT tailgate the guy in front of you.
We get a light dusting of snow down here, and Ho-Lee-SH!T everything goes to crap in a hurry.
“everyone is either driving 20 miles over the speed limit, or 30 miles under it. ”
That’s considered normal driving behavior here.
If you are on an Interstate Highway, i think driving under the speed limit should be penalized just as much as driving over it. With lots and lots of exceptions, but the point is, if you CAN drive the speed limit then you should be.
You can actually be ticketed for driving to slowly as it’s considered a hazard to other drivers on the road.
Q8< !! *froth froth*
Most places it actually IS illegal to go less than 50mph on a freeway. You can’t really make it less than that here because there is no alternative to the freeway in many areas, and we have a lot of people whose cars can’t go over 50.
One of our interstates has such a big traffic problem that they actually went to changing speed limits throughout the course of the day. During heavy traffic times, the speed limit is about 40. During normal times, it’s 60. Most people ignore the 40 if traffic isn’t bad, though. LOL
Seattle has lanes that change direction depending on time of day. It’s highly entertaining…and sometimes actually works. Best fun in the Puget Sound area is when they open the Hood Canal Floating Bridge for the ‘classified’ departure of a Trident sub. Then you can wave at the sub that is NOT passing in front of you.
Suicide lanes!
Chicago has express lanes too. They switch directions depending on the time of day.
What if the speed limit is 25? How do you drive -5?
That would be the ones driving the wrong way.
Texans figure it out. I’ve seen people stop on a 6 lane divided highway and BACK UP to make an exit……
Here we just drive on the wrong side of the freeway. Much easier.
Oh, I see people make a freaking 90 degree right turn on our busiest interstate and make a beeline for an exit they’re about to miss. St. Louisans are stupid stupid drivers.
My brother says the drivers are stupid stupid stupid! everywhere. We just notice the ones we see.
National Identification fail; that shot is from the UK, and we don’t even have to own Winter tyres here!
UK? Really? I don’t think so Paws…… The Caddy (which I’d be surprised if there are any in the UK), has the sterring wheel on the left side of the car. Plus look at what type of cars those are, there aren’t that manu ungreen cars in the UK total, let alone on one highway.
Yeah, the Caddy is a Caddy; we have about 100 of them, all LHD IIRC.
But if you’re arguing that that shot is from an LHD market, all but one of those cars has somehow spun ~180deg in its slide.
paws: You can see the American style license plate on some of the cars as well. Plus UK tow trucks I’ve seen are not F250 Tow Trucks.
Yeah Paws I believe the is I-95 in North Carolina during the last snow storm they had. Looking at the cars, they’re all Americanesk designed cars, and many American highways have a “ravine” between lanes.
We aren’t required to own winter tires either…buying tires that handle well in snow just seems like the smart thing to do if you live in an area with heavy winter snowfall.
I don’t think this shot is from the UK. Look at the license plate on the Pontiac Sunfire, and the silver Mazda. Don’t you british folks have funny shaped long license plates?
WHere’s the Pontiac? Wrt the Nissan Primera that has the Jeep Cherokee backed into it. Our licence plates are:-
1) Made of plastic, so break easily compared with your aluminium ones.
2) Have a length defined by how long they need to be, and valid registration numbers run from 2 to 7 characters.
ILPB, UK tow trucks can be all sorts; some firms use US trucks for image, or because they’re heavier than similar size European vehicles.
Paws: Pontiac is right in front of the F250 Tow Truck, behind the Caddy. That’s a Maryland plate I believe. Besides if you look at another picture without the writing there you def see a standard Ford Interceptor cop car.
Ok; after a “view all” I got the Interceptor.
I can’t see crap in the picture! I think you’re both making it up
They never share the good drugs.
*hides baggie*
Whut?
*whispers to Mabs* Don’t worry, Charro gave me the key to her drug safe while she was away and I made a copy….
Yay!
I’ll share!!!
Ah.. Cat crap.
The silver car directly in front of the Ford towtruck. The mazda is the silver car in the back, surrounded by mini-vans!
too slow steve too slow…..
Sorry, ILPB, the correct response was: Q-<
For him. For you or me it would be Q8<
I didn’t identify any nationality! Oh, and you don’t have to own winter tyres here either, but of course you’re not allowed to drive your car without them (between December 1st and March 31st if the roads are in “winter condition”.)
I don’t think I’ve ever lived in a state that ‘required’ winter tires. You may be ‘required’ to have a credit card for the tow truck driver, though.
I was curious and googlified it, and there seems to be no laws for winter tyres in any US state. Our law, apart from what I wrote above, also says it’s illegal to have studded tyres between April 15th and October 1st, unless you are driving on winter condition roads.
Also the pattern on the tyre must be 3 mms deep in winter, 1.6 mms deep in summer.
TYRES R SRZ BISNIS!11!!
(That’s at least X mms deep. They don’t have to match exactly that.)
WA State did (I don’t know if they still do) have the part about when you COULDN’T have studded tires.
Oh, right. I didn’t google too vigorously, apparently. ;p
Not necessarily. I haven’t lived there for a long time. But I have found that traffic laws are one of the hardest things to find online. I got a warning ticket for using my cell phone IN A FREAKING PARKING LOT and ended up calling a traffic expert to ask if it was illegal (couldn’t be sure from the law’s description online).
BTW, it’s not. Traffic laws don’t apply on private property, at least here. Apparently, however, they can GIVE you as many tickets as they like; they’re just not valid.
Yep! Same thing applies to stop signs in private lots – you don’t have to pay attention to them! They’re not real!
Are they just a figment of your imagination?
BTW, as far as I know, we have traffic laws here in Canuckland that specifically apply to parking lots, private or public. At the very least, it’s used to determine whose at fault in a parking lot accident.
Yes, they are.
Here you get rear-ended in a parking lot, you’re screwed if the other person doesn’t want to admit fault. It’s equal fault, period.
If the private land owner in question decides to allow the police on their property in order to enforce things like handicapped parking and whatnot, I believe the tickets issued are legal. Diss?
Ah, they can issue tickets for disabled parking violations. But no other tickets are valid. Not in NM. You can get charged with something like vehicular manslaughter, though (I think). But that’s filed by the DA, not a police officer.
One question though, does that mean if you get a ticket for parking in a handicap spot without a placard you can contest it?
BTW, I’m one of those that WILL confront you if you aren’t handicapped and park there.
No, my understanding is they can do that; they just can’t ticket for moving violations.
Our NPR station does a best bumper sticker contest on the Friday afternoon music show, and my favorite winner was not a bumper sticker but the note someone left on a car illegally parked in a disabled spot: “Being lazy is not a physical handicap, jerk. Leave it for those who need it.” LOL.
I hate people who park in handicapped spots that are not handicapped. I don’t even do it when it’s 3a.m. and the whole lot is empty.
After my dad’s first heart attack, he couldn’t walk uphill and stupid people would park in the only handicapped spot next to the building.
It’s a great use for cell phones, IMO.
I’m all in favor of running those people over. Makes them honest.
Where’s da funneh, except for the picture.
I like the caption where they’re all saying ” I give myself a B+ for driving”!!!
Even that caption is a laugh riot compared to the piece of doodoo up there.
That’s an insult to pieces of doodoo everywhere.
good thing the assholes went into the ravine
but not the smart people
ROFLCOPTER ATTACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the caption is probably accurate. It’s what stupid Americans do. (I’m an American too, and I really hate rubbernecking.)
Everyone rubbernecks – not just Americans.
You’re not being very civil, Sarah, when you call people stupid. Your name is a lie!!
This is a tragedy. A bunch of The Kind of Idiots who slam on their brakes and bring traffic to a halt to gawk at accidents locked their brakes and went off the road into a ravine that was only about six feet deep instead of three or four hundred
It’s a socialist Belgian ditch!!
If the car in front of you slams their brakes, you don’t really have very many options other than to slam on your own brakes.
Good take on the “ravine” complaint.
Less funny when you know the circumstances (including fatalities)…
Considering it’s not even funny without knowing the sad parts, hard to be less…
Not funny at all. Here’s hoping no one was hurt or killed.
ALL OF YOU…..
STOP BEING NOT FUNNY!
Remember where you are.
We’re watching.
Anyway, nobody died in this one.
Which makes it even more tragic.
My dear DU, that was quite unnecessarily wicked.
I try my best darling.
You’ll fit in SO well in England with that sense of humour!
*snuggles* I’ve even been practicing my spelling. Humour and neighbour, and favour!
*feels increased fervour and ardour for DU*
Darwin fail.
This picture made me cringe… where I live (South-central Pa) is supposed to get dumped on starting this afternoon until sometime late Saturday… they are calling for anywhere from 14-20″… and I’m sure everyone will be rushing to the grocery store for the “three essentials”: milk, bread and toilet paper. It happens EVERYTIME they call for snow… you get to the late, and it’s all gone… which begs the question: IS there some bizzare “snow emergency” survival recipe I don’t know about??
*to the store late*
That’s twice on the same page already…
*goes to remedial typing class*
You forgot eggs. Or is that a Pittsburgh thing?
My wife asked me recently: “Why do people go to the store for milk, eggs, and bread? Are they planning on eating french toast the whole time they’re snowbound?”
mmmm, yummy. better pick up some syrup and powdered sugar while you’re there too!
Mmmmm now I want to some French Toast..
I know right? I like to put a lot of butter and powdered sugar on top and mix it together into a sort of powdered sugar paste on top. That’s goooooooood.
THAT’S WHAT I DO TOO!!!
it’s the best.
Oh good! I’m not alone! People always look at me like I’m some sort of freak for doing that.
I have never tried that, Rando, but it sounds full of win. I so would not look at you like you were a freak……..for that, anyway.
you’ll get a sugar coma from it but it’s SO yummy.
It’s just icing: butter and sugar. How can that be wrong or freaky??
Hey, I don’t know! I said I wouldn’t think he was a freak……because of that.
Commenting back to the overall thread, darlin, not ragging on you. I’m all for everybody getting a sugar coma.
Nah, there’s plenty of other reasons to think I’m a freak.
that nasty little prostitute problem you have is enough for me to move you into the freak column
just to clarify, it’s Rando with the prostitute problem, not justacanuck
What? Just because he wants to give free prostitutes to everyone you think he’s a freak? What part of socialist don’t you understand?
wicket, if I pay you off to keep something a secret, you’re not supposed to tell everyone!!!!!
I begin to be leary of Wicket’s drug offer.
i learned it from you. I LEARNED IT FROM YOU!
“From me?” I just offer food…and entrance to the Nudist Thermonuclear Repository and Bomb Shelter. People have to bring their own drugs.
I drown mine in maple syrple. I drown everything in maple syrple.
I prefer maple syrup.
Shhhhh…..don’t tell the Canadian authorities, but I’m not a real big fan of maple syrup…..
I actually prefer the fake maple syrup (Log Cabin etc.).
Infidels! *headdesk*
*starts writing*
Dear Department of Canadian Homeland Security,
You have a food terrorist in your midst and her name is Nucky…
*hides under desk as the mounties search the office* Thanks a LOT, HOW!
Nucky…THERE ARE MOUNTIES IN YOUR OFFICE!!! Why do you think I wrote to the Feds??!!! Why are you hiding??!!! Offer them coffee, tea…flash em. I know you’re not forgetting the lure of a man in red serge!!
Really, Nucky. THe only Mounties I ever met were quite attractive. Have they lowered their standards since the 70s?
I can’t eat that stuff. I have to have the sugar free kind.
Sugar free mounties? What? Why are you eating mounties?
Um, aren’t Mounties mostly guys, Rando?
Sorry, I’m way behind the conversation. I meant syrup…smart ass.
You said it. We were just inquiring as to details.
Rando, you are the only one on PK i feel confortable enough to just pick on for no reason other than a giggle. I can seem brutal at first read, but it’s all an act. I’m a huggy-feely liberal in the long run, so you have to love me. That being said, what the hell is sugar-free syrup made from?
Sugar free trees?
I’m not sure zombie ewoks qualify as huggable….
Aw, wicket, that’s sweet of you to say. I’ve got a present for ya. *beats wicket with a crowbar* You’re the only one I feel comfortable enough with on PK to beat with a crowbar.
Is that why you’re offering drugs, Wicket? Hmmm. Yes, a cuter pic would go far (says the person too lazy to make an avatar of her own).
Sugar free syrup isn’t really that bad, but I’m used to sugar free stuff (not to say I don’t enjoy sugar sometimes, but sugary syrup is a sure-fire way to put me to sleep).
what? what’s wrong with my pic? that’s the best one i got =(
i see what’s happening here
Isn’t there a rule that the liberal boys have to have cute pics? At least if they want the codes to the Nudist Thermonuclear Repository and Bomb Shelter. Unless you’re bringing more food? We are very keen on chocolate.
I changed my profile pic a couple nights ago. It seemed to work for that night now it’s back to this one… what can ya do?
I’m sorry justacanuk, but you know the rules… 10 days of nothing but CPAC, poutine and Molson until you have been re-programmed… I mean re-patriotized
Nooooooooo! Save our Nucky!
*swooshing sounds*
Here to do just that!
Hmmm…there may be a jurisdiction problem, what with both parties being Canadian…hmmm…AH!
I have a really big hammer that can shoot thunder and lightning when I want it to. Jurisdiction problem solved!
*wraps Nucky in cape again*
Come, dear…never mind that old pirate.
I’m sorry Mabs the law up here is very clear, Maple Syrup is not to be disparaged, Hockey is sacred (you do not necessarily need to watch every game of the regular season, but you are required to at least watch from the playoffs until all Canadian teams are eliminated or we win the cup), and you must point out at every possible opportunity that we beat you guys in the war of 1812 (even though we were technically still the British at the time). (Void in Quebec due to invocation of the ‘Not Withstanding Clause’.)
*sobs* Nucky! We’ll wait for you!
Relax Mabs, its only 10 days Mabs, we don’t do long sentences up here. Even a Life sentence is only 10–25 years until they are eligible for parole.
*sigh* But the horror of it all! Don’t you have laws against cruel and unusual punishment?
You ask this about the nation that produced Celine Dion?
Silly Americans…
I’ve been meaning to speak to you about that…definitely below your normal level of civility.
Sooooo, you only have to watch until maybe the 2nd round then?
Well, MG, how else are you supposed to make milk sandwiches?
Is the toilet paper added for texture or taste?!
my snow storm survival kit includes good beer, hot chocolate mix, bread, and some DVDs. we buy TP at sams club, we’re NEVER out of TP.
*finishes TP’ing ILPB’s house* You’re out of TP.
d@mmit rando! now go out and buy me another 48 pack of TP! and get the charmin too… not that cheap 1ply stuff!
*comes back from ILPB’s house* You’re out of eggs too.
Bad liberal! No wasting food! *swats Rando with rolled-up newspaper*
What? I went and made him french toast!
Rando: I think you hit the wrong house. The Navy Seal who lives next to me is wondering whom to “thank” for the new decorations, and “french toast” house. Don’t worry though, I was nice to you, and told him it was Max.
*facepalm*
Uh oh. Rando, I think you had better mess with the trail of syrup you left behind. Seals are pretty good at tracking, I think?
*hands Rando a power-washing hose*
@#^&*(#$%&* RANDO!
Bless you.
i would have spelled it all out but the moderation folks here at PK have decided to ram the sticks up their a$$es a bit firmly recently. and i really dislike having to intentionally misspell words that we used to be able to spell. fvck we never could… so i’m ok with that one. but the others? and c0ck?! it’s ridiculous.
Yes, it is ridiculous. I can’t even say ric0ckulous!
Someone tried to use the synonym for laughing that rhymes with Tigger, but got moderated because it contained the n-word. I’m all for moderating the n-word, but surely their computer can figure out that there are words containing other words?
A word containing another word? How can this be? This is madness!
OMG, I can’t even say sh!tzu!
Someone tried to say Hanc0ck, as John Hanc0ck, the guy who signed the fscking constitution, on a political humour sight, and it got moderated…I was kind of impressed by that.
When we were talking about guns, someone tried to use the word for getting ready to fire and it was moderated. On the positive side, it will make us expand our vocabularies.
(Although not as much as saving our u’s does.)
I’m a little underwhelmed with their “Ravine”
Yeah, but you should see their “Crevasse”…
*badump..bump…
I liked the “Capt. WOW has been txting and driving” caption!
*blushes*
Well you know I did miss that one Texter’s Anonymous meeting.
-Oh! And I faved
Never mind how you’re built, and you are built stacked girl, “we all know we could make a joke like that about you and you will laugh at it” is one of your best features.
*blushes*
Why thank you!
*huggles*
That one was the best.
when i saw it in voting it was at like -20 because the voting masses are morons who don’t frequent the comments and as such couldn’t appreciate the humor in that caption.
IT WAS -20?! Geez, that’s like my worst voting ever.
it’s just because EW doesn’t like you. he and all his multiple personalities voted it down…
He’s just bitter because I’m way funnier than he is. And yes, I’m egotistical enough to admit that.
but it’s not egotistical if it’s the the truth
I know right? That caption writer is a comic genius.
He sure is. Wonder who that mysterious masked man is? I think he might be from St. Charles..
I…uh…I mean he’s not from St. Charles. That’s to the northwest.
I thought maybe it was Seattle…?
I smell shenanigans….
*nods knowingly*
LMAO! That’s great.
*bows*
Ravine? Really? That’s a ditch where I come from. Ravines are deep, nasty things. Ditches you slide into in the winter and out of which you drive if you have skill and the ability to stay calm under the circumstances.
God there are some dumb captions for this one.
ZOMG Global Warming captions – Yes, a photograph of snow absolutely proves that global climate change is a myth.
4 Wheel Drive Vehicles still slide on ice – True, but NONE of the vehicles in the ditch are even offered in four wheel drive.
Agree on Global Warming ones, the only reason this is said is I believe this is in the South…. not supposed to snow there.
However there are two cars in the Ravie that could have AWD or FWD. The Green Aztec behind the blue flipped car, and if that’s a Mazda 6 Speed it has AWD (with racing tires, but still AWD)
Smallest ‘ravine’ I’ve ever seen. More like a ditch, I’d say.
Hey is that a Ravine? looks kinda of like a ditch, or a crevace in the ground, can’t tell though too much fog and snow in the way.
You’re all IDIOTS becuase that is obviously a drainage DITCH and not a RAVINE!!11!!!
And it’s a BELGIAN DITCH at that!!
It’s a SOCIALIST DITCH!!! (see, cause it’s letting ALL the cars in, distributing the carnage)
“Next on Glenn Beck: The Belgian Socialist Ditch Conspiracy and how Obama is ruining the Road Construction Industry.”
*snerk*
*giggle fit*
No, it’s not. It’s Mythbusters.
THEIR R NO ELECTRIK TRAINS OUTSIDE OF NEW ENGLNAD!!! *froth**froth*
it doesnt matter where you are from…every year we act like we have never driven in snow before…which is worse then driving normal (in most cases, not all)
Oh, and I see that today the thing to do is to point out that IT NO RAVINE, IT A DITCH!!!!!111!1!1!q
I thought it was a chasm..?
It’s not a hollow?
Clearly it’s a canyon.
Isn’t that Grand…
It’s an arroyo.
No, I’m pretty sure it’s a dale *walks away humming old WWI tune*
Och aye, it’s a glen, the noo.
It’s not a fjord??
Aren’t they pining?
I laugh because they call that a ravine…
*epic facepalm*
Ya know, I didn’t get to kill anybody yesterday and I got this new M1A from ILPB….Just sayin’.
No it’s not. Its Belgian Mythbusters.
EINSTEIN WAS BELGIAN! Or was he a Socialist? Oh no! He was a Murderer! On Mythbusters!
Was that the one with the Israeli soldiers?
IT’S TOOOO SOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN!!!!!!1!111!!!!!!!
It’s Ottawa, Canada. That was a 60-car pile up on the first real snow of winter. An embarrassing day for Canadian drivers…glad to say I was not there! http://www.cbc.ca/canada/ottawa/story/2009/12/14/ottawa-highway-416-closed.html
It wasn’t the first real snow, it was unusually thick fog. It was cleared up by the time this picture was taken, but essentially, the cars drove into a fog patch so thick you couldn’t see the front of your car.
Yeah, this was out just past the on-ramp near my house – about five minutes from here! I had to wait three hours for the Auto Club to show up to jump my battery because of this…
