exactly. I drive Mercedes ;) I would just put my front bumper carefully at the rear of the ambulance and helped him gain speed ( Damages on the car is nothing compared to human lifes )
Just after I put the camera down, they did. A lady came out of her house and put some towels down to help it get traction and about 5 of us pushed it about 20 meters until it got enough speed to negotiate the rest of the hill.
dunno, this was black ice and slush, you would of needed studded tyres to get up this hill. It took 5 people to get the ambulance the rest of the 70 meters up the hill. That night was chaos, it snowed 24hrs before but melted, then snowed again and re-froze.
Classic i live not too far from Birmingham and on the thursday of the snow there was a sainsbury delivery van over the road and when it tried to get out of the private road over the road from me it spent 1 hour digging itself out!
Scrapings out of peoples refrigerators up in the upper floors of the buildings around there?? Yep, that's what it is - you can get frost even in the summer in the freezer!

You'd think somebody would have given the ambulance a push, instead of just sitting there in their cars.

Why oh why can't we use snow chains? They are metal and would dig into the ice? Yes?

I didn't think that English Midland cities ever got that much snow, per winter.

Relax folks, that white stuff is not snow. Per Al Gore the earth is too warm for snow. So what is all that wet white stuff?

Now that makes sense. Because I knew it just could not be real snow which would have made comrade Al Gore a liar.
