anyone remember Cars vs Weather?

check out the road tonight:



it's going to be madness in the morning . i'm supposed to be working tomorrow though, what are the chances of me getting there if they haven't even been gritting the roads? :/

get some tires like i got, get pretty good traction on the ice, dont think they got any small enough for ya car thoe.

they are called Ground Hawgs and are directional tread patttern and wear like iron in the highway for my 2100lb 4x4.

[Steve]

that's not my car in the pic btw
but you're right, they dont make those for my car

[Scott]

[Grenademan]

[Hellfighter]

Steve, with all due respect mate...I've seen snow like that in April lol. When you get 4-6 feet in one night, and school is still open, then let me know

PS..95% of the cars in the UK are standard. Don't use your brakes, down shift instead of braking and you'll be fine. Drive around in first gear, I swear to god, the only reason people have accidents is because they get it in their head that the roads are bad! I've rode my bike in more snow than is what is in that picture lol.

And that's so true.. I think people should have a slipping course next to there driving licence.. I did a slipping course with atruck, that was so much fun..

And it helps me wiht my driving in a car also.

lol i knew bustin would pipe up about our snow :P LOL! our snow sucks compared to yours but its nice to have some every now and again =) it is a bit pathetic tho over here the way the country stops when theres a tiny bit of snow.

[Hellfighter]

some states in the U.S.A outlaw the use of snow chains totally! not to be use on open road ways, this came to be do to the snow chains ripup the blacktop and they repair work needs to be done cost to much.

that's the point tho, we get snow about 2 days a year max, no one has any practice at driving on ice, no getting used to it at all, no big tires, no studded tyres, few gritters, we're not prepaired, but why go spend millions of pounds on stuff for a couple of days a year? not much point really, we* might as well sit it out for 2 days

roads were ok today, managed to get behind a gritter with plow to get over the Peak District


*we - those who cant get to work.

[Terry]

yea good point there sb =) funnily enough it was my day off when it snowed here thursday anyways hehe.

[Mauser 98K]

i did a do it yourself slipery course, walmart parking lot and a rainy day with a beat up pos car, lol. got chaced out of there by the cops and almost got thrown in jail, i would have been thrown in jail if i had been older than 15 at the time.

I need some of those.I got a GMC Cannon 2004 and it slides bad because of the wheels.I have to put some weight in the back if I dont want it to slide on curves, usually its ok as long as im not going to fast on curves.Anyways the first day I got it over the summer like a year almost ago, the thing slid around one of the curves on a hill lol.Anyways theres a photo on my myspace if anyone wants to see it!I dont feel like posting it on here lol!Im lazy today!
