Post by: Cindi on January 18, 2007, 10:23:39 am: I watching this video with amazement and horror. That must have been very terrifying for anyone that was caught in this icy road. I have never had a car go out of control before, I have nothing to compare this video to, other than imagination.

My guess was that there was quite an incline to the road, hence the long long slipping of vehicles. My heart goes out to those people involved. I bet they got some salt on this particular stretch of road pretty quickly.

Thank you for taking us into a realm of vision where some of us haven't seen before. Great day. Cindi

Post by: TwT on January 18, 2007, 11:13:18 am: on the video I was wondering how long it would take for someone to stand at the end of the street and stop traffic, guest they had a quota to fill first then stop traffic from hitting the ice .....

Kirk-o and I were pointing out places that are getting ice storms that, hardly ever to never, have any winter weather.

Post by: Kathyp on January 19, 2007, 11:14:14 am: i posted that over on one of the "child boards". turns out that the guy driving was 79. got away with just a lac on the head. it was kind of funny for us. my husband had just come back from ft worth, tx where the ice was just starting. the next day, it was snowing here like crazy, but freezing rain in town where that video came from.
