I Cant Drive In The Snow


Recommended Posts

this morning at about 6:50am i went to go pick up a friend of mine so we can go to school. she lives about a mile from me with sidestreets so its pretty easy. the roads were plowed but a little slush was left buuuut her cul-de-sac wasnt even plowed. 4" of straight snow with only 1 set of tire marks in it.

i go to pick her up, i turn into the cul-de-sac and i hit the gas a little for fun to spin the tires. nothing dangerous.

shes in the car at this point, i back out of the driveway, cut the wheel to the left, barely hit the gas, "im thinking ok everythings goin good"

(for point of reference when you turn into the cul-de-sac, theres another turn about 100ft after to actually go in there.)

i make that first turn going like 5, my car decides to go straight over the curb and shes laughing and im thinking "...fuck" and laughed. nothing else happened that day thank god.

anyone else have stories from this year?

edit: map of the street, i ran over the curb where the white car was. her house is the one on the bottom with the triangle-ass driveway Map

I use to have a ranger, just a little 3" lift and 31x11x50 Wild Country M/Ts. Last year it snowed pretty bad, we had a good foot or so where I lived. Well I live way off of any main public roads, well I was bored and decided to go out for a ride. Ended up helping tons of people out of ditches, and 1 van back up their driveway cuz they tried to leave (was funny as hell when I first saw it). Well I was on my way home, a few miles from my house, and since I helped so many people out, I was getting a little cocky about driving on the snowy road, and since nobody else was on it, I decided to play around a little and gas it a few times. Well at one point I was only doing about 20 mph on this straight away right beside my house, ended up flooring it a little too long, lost control and went into the ditch :(. Good thing I was still in 2wd! Got out, locked the hubs and went on my marry way :P and didn't damage anything luckily. If we have the same kind of snow this year, I may have to end up going out and getting different tires to throw on the explorer so I can get outta my driveway haha. Usually takes 3 or 4 days for the people to get back to where I live to clear the roads (that is AFTER it is completely done snowing).
