There is something I never understood--why, when people post photos or videos of vehicles, they always edit out the license plates? 223rem <223rem@gmail.com> said in rec.autos.driving: >> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6192982853918452521 > >Not real, I heard.

It's the overall complete lack of attention to the task of driving that makes the video what it is.... The funniest though has to be the BMW driver that ripped open his 1/4 panel on the bumper of the DOT truck. I always wondered how some of the odd body damage I've seen on cars happens. >>> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=6193883242058858418 >> I'd have to say that the best part is where the DOT truck is directing [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > driver that ripped open his 1/4 panel on the bumper of the DOT truck. I > always wondered how some of the odd body damage I've seen on cars happens. Yup, have to agree. Don't these idiots realize that it's better to ease off the brakes and steer *around* the object in front of them rather than slide *into* it sideways... Anyway, here's a clip of how to drive in the snow by a professional (ie. me :-)). Don't Try This At Home kids... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgnCr8JxHc Ulf > Anyway, here's a clip of how to drive in the snow by a professional (ie. > me :-)). > > Don't Try This At Home kids... > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UgnCr8JxHc I wish the roads around here were that empty. 2-4" tonight and I am just staying home because of the idiots that will be out and about. If the roads were empty I'd have no problem. I just don't feel like having some one plow into my car.

Didn't hit any invisible semis, lloyd loungers, or anything else that I know of. The only thing that came close was before I was out with the camcorder and some idiot dropped what looked like a bed in the right lane of the freeway (I was in the left lane so I avoided much of the mess). The reason it's edited so much is because of the 100 MB limit on youtube. From the beginning that clip was ~350 MB so a lot had to be cut. Anyway, that clip should show that RWD cars are perfectly safe to drive in the winter, and they're more fun too. Likewise, driving 90 mph, even on snow, won't kill you. :-) Ulf Ulf <asdf@asdf.com> said in rec.autos.driving: >The reason it's edited so much is because of the 100 MB limit on >youtube.
