  • Every year, you see more and more of this because newbies to snow move where they don't know how to drive.

  • Was in Portland that day for a flight to Boston. A friend drove me into town the night before. I'll never forget the next morning at the motel. Trees crashing down everywhere. City buses slid by us sideways slamming into walls, cars & buildings. Took an hour to get 4 inches of ice off the car. No traffic lights. Cars were floating with icebergs in the PDX lot. 3,000 stranded at PDX with no power - no lights, toilets or in house phones. 2 planes took off that day. I was on one to .....Vegas.

  • Lol stop the car it is going no a rampage lol

  • Car pinball !!!!!!

  • How dumb are they? Seriously if you know that the streets are that slippery you don't take your fucking car! And what about the guy at 01:30? Still accelerates.. I guess he replaces his brain with a shit heap.

  • Note the SUV drives who think AWD suddenly means you can drive on ice in summer tires!

    Also, 0:12, he hits the gas, twice. Idiot!

  • Welp, nothing I can do here. Hold on.

  • The first guy made matters worse by flooring the acc pedal. dumbass!

  • I like the first guy. "See this road? I'm going to hit everything on it."

  • yea... that first car should PERMANENTLY have there license taken away!!!!!!!!

  • All women drivers D:

  • no traction control... no traction :D

  • This is what happens when people see "hazardous driving conditions" all over the weather, can look outside and see things are really bad, can walk outside and see things are really bad... then think, "Pfft... I can handle this" and decide to drive anyway.

    Idiots.

  • the first person seems to think that the best way to stop would be by flooring the accelerator...

  • ever heared to dont give loads of gas wen u see snow and cars?

  • 1:32 Holy Moley!

  • People are smart

  • Uh, that would be Seattle, not Portland.

  • What the fu&&#!! How do they do it. Are they driving on teflon ore what?

  • This can only happen in the US!

  • This is why we cant have nice things

  • LoL

  • Fucking tards....thats why we make WINTER TIRES!!! LOl ^-^

  • USA got most stupid people on the world

  • The hipsters in Portland love their dented cars because it's "ironic".

  • Wonder if the first guy knows....he missed one

  • This is why AZ has a Stupid Law. Why are people on the streets and driving at all?

  • Soo nice :D But I don't get why the cars are sliding on and on and the people around there just stand and watch

  • thank god we have allstate are you in good hands hahah

  • feels like i'm watching curling or something

  • hahahahhahahahahahhaha

  • I stayed out of school for so long cause of that storm.

  • rofl.. that was one funny vid.. some people are really stupid! i love it! <3

  • hell irember this snow storm kept me out of school for to weeks pretty funny to see A cop car speeding down my icy street chasing some crip i love in a verry fucked up neibor hood

  • why do idiots still try to drive in those conditions?

  • First driver; Aw crap I hit that car . Passenger; let's go for the pole now..

  • Loll

  • That first guy drove like he didn't give a damn what he hit, just kept flooring it!

  • (Driver)- Look at all of the cars sliding on the ice.I know !!! I CAN MAKE IT!!! THEY JUST DONT KNOW HOW TO DRIVE!! [[CRASHES CAR]]

  • This is why you just don't drive, at all, in conditions like that, unless you have 4wd, and chains on your wheels.

    Slipping? Avoid the breaks damn it! Keep your car in control! These people are idiots for even thinking they'd be able to drive in that weather!

  • best. video. ever.

  • @tsavakinas44

    I live here - I can't get enough of watching this and laugh every time I share it....lol ;)))

  • why did they keep coming thats un believable

  • that first guy failed so badly

  • LOL the BMW was the only car that made it out scotch free.

  • GTA V : Portland

  • true lol

  • haben die in portland kein streusalz oder wenigstens sand*?!

  • The thing you guys fail to realize is that it doesn't snow a lot in Portland, it's mostly freezing rain. And even then, we get that maybe once a year. Most people don't put on their studded tires in the winter, and in fact few people even own studded tires. It's not completely driver stupidity that causes these crashes, it's also the fact that most people here are unprepared for driving on an inch of ice covered in an inch of snow.

  • All I have to say is....WOMAN DRIVERS!!

  • I cannot believe the first jack-ass managed to crash into 5 or 6 different cars, all about 500' from each other. That woman should should have permanent license revocation!

    Overall, pretty cool carnage...

  • If those people want that snow melted, they should rub thier 2 total I.Q. points together and start a fire...

  • GRAND THEFT AUTO PORTLAND :P

  • i remember seeing this on the news.. i thought it was funny. XD i mean sucks for everyone involved, but he just kept crashing.. it looked like a video game. o3o

  • IS this in Oregon? It's ridiculous, we get ice and snow pretty much every year here, yet some morons just can't figure it out. And don't blame only the elderly! Drivers of ALL ages are equally capable of this kind of utter stupidity.

    One morning a few years ago my parking lot had turned into a sheet of solid ice, and my parking space happened to be at the bottom of a very steep hill. By 11 am my car had been hit by THREE idiots who attempted to drive down the icy hill with no traction.

  • There was a woman who harped on about having 3 kids. As if everyone must stop worrying about their own problems to tend to hers. 3 kids apparently equals more important, i guess.

  • why were other people even trying after the first incident?

  • Wow, and the cars keep rollin' on by

    Hilarious

    (sucks to be them, but still hilarious)

    Bumper Cars!

  • woman.

    yup.

  • Apparently this happens everytime it snows in Portland. Just moved down here and experienced it first hand.

  • the first is a really idiot..giving speed after first crash ?? what a moron...destroy everything after first small touch

  • That first guy was 78 years old, and was knocked out when his air bag went off after the first collision, which is why he never took his foot off the gas. This is per the news reports at the time.

    (He might still be an idiot, but that's not really relevant to the situation at hand.)

  • @sha1om

    ok..sorry this i don`t know...

    but BEWARE of OLD PEOPLE driving

    AUTOMATIC, they could KILL YOU perhaps!

    and go OFF the Streets in Situations like this, here in Germany it is the LAW that you must leave the Car and go behind the Barriers !

  • des vrais débiles. Il n'y a que là-bas qu'on peut voir ça

  • I like driving around and laughing at all the lifted 4x4's in the ditch when it ices around here. What, your truck will pull through deep mud? OK. I drive a 2wd Ram with a posi rear end.

  • silly americans

  • what I do is put my car in a low gear and use 4 wheel drive studded tires... ect

  • Say bro, can you imagine driving a 5 ton in this crap? When I was in Korea, well, if you were Army, you know.

  • call it to work, not gonna make it. why do so many people try to drive on that? like they can smash their car better?

  • how can they be so stupid?? I would not use my car in conditions like those... Rather leave it at home! OMG...

  • LOL!

  • Damn you americans, you can't drive for s*it in snow. I live in Europe and when we have this kind of weather then we are in heaven. In a drifters heaven:D:D

  • JanekHusaar - You are an damn idiot... Tha is not snow you moron its ice I don't care how good of a driver your are WHen your on solid ice your fucked. Damn you ignorant ass people raelly get on my nerves talking about how americans can't drive.

  • Screw you man. Have you ever heard about studded tires?? You little nerd f*cker

  • Studded tires are illegal in Oregon because the weather is rarely like this.

  • Studded tires are legal from mid-November to April or so

  • Uh no, no they are not. Lost of people in Oregon have studded tires.

  • Well, then you have to buy some Spiketires or mount some chains, otherwise you shouldn't drive if weathers like this. Greetings from the Icemountains in Switzerland :D

  • well we in lithuania get soooooo big snow and ice mixtures and couple of people even driving with racing slick tires :) and u say u cant keep up with winter tires? :) all stupid accidents whitch happens and is published mostly on youtube from US :) so.... we have a point MOST of you guys just can drive in sunny hot day....

  • I didn't say "I" couldn't drive in snow.. We don;t get snow ALL the time so some people are not good at driving in it. But if the road is covered in Ice theres not much you can do unles you have studded tires. Snow and ice are two different things. Its alot easier to drive in deep snow then ice.

  • hahahhahaha

  • CAR PINBALL!!!!

  • The drivers are all drunk...too too funny

  • I love the first idiot who keeps going and crashes into everything in sight

  • @Marines10595

    yeah! and the way he like asks for help

    x3

  • lol just like the drivers on I-5, keep going full tilt in pouring rain and snow, they wonder how accidents happen to them. idiots, pretty damn funny though.

  • HAHAHAHAHAH! Great video man i wish i was there. you should have kept the video going i wanted to see the fire truck crash too!

  • @Marines10595

    That moron in the SUV accelerated (twice!) after hitting the pole and made matters much worse. He could have stopped instead of crossing the intersection.

  • I watched this along time ago and it's still awesome.

  • wow. the car insurance companies must have been pissed after this one 0_0

  • this video reminds me of the time me in my dad were trying to go up a snowy-icy hill in syracuse, ny but instead ended up coming back down. scary stuff.

  • their all mad why drive on ice

    got to love it

  • that was so cool lmao

  • lmao what the fuck was that first guy doing? he was on like a path of destruction

  • To the video description...I'm pretty sure the road is covered in ice at the bottom, that's why the cars are sliding like they are. I don't think snow would be as slippery, although I know snow is slippery. Snow tyres wouldn't affect much, I'd recommend spikes for these situations.

  • in portland yes!

    In Germany Spikes are prohebitet

  • lol those suvs were sliding all over the place and the BMW made a turn with no problem at all...

  • omg, the first car is a dumbass.... LMAO... Fuck it.. Lets hit as much shit as possible!!!!!

  • The first car did absolutely right. maybe the car had tyres with winter nails in it (sorry don't know the correct word in english). In that case u put the pedal to the metal to correct the cars course even a little bit to avoid crashing. But that driver had DUMB luck

  • lmao

  • haha lol

  • after the first 3 accident , One person shouldve went there and Put a sign and close the Road to help the fellow drivers .......

    Anyways thanks for the video

  • Snow and hills make for a bad combination. But that first person must've been retarted or something. Maybe somebody should've run down there with some ice melt.

  • What in god's green earth was that first person doing? "I've just hit a park car, I know what will fix it, giving the car more gas and hitting more cars."

  • first guys fucking insane

  • So glad I have a peice of shit 2002 civic for winter time :)

  • Why in the good Lord's name do you even try to navigate weather like that unless you are prepared.....Oh geez, I forgot...MORONS are out there.....

  • damn, caused by what wind, or were they downhill?

  • ice, my friend...

  • Dont they have snowtires? or is it extramly icy?

  • omg... they cant just slam there brakes and expect to stop... you have to feather them so ur tires dont act like sleds!

    but that alot money.... omg... i feels sry toall the people that had there car damaged or messed up... and for sure the peopl that wer sliden...

  • fuck!

  • CLUSTERFUCK!

  • thats when you pull out the ole chains,

    i love how the first guy thinks he can recover by gunning it, probly a women.....jk

  • Comment removed

  • They don't need snow tires; they need crampons!

  • INERTIA!

  • yeah this is seattle... sure looks like seattle anyway. I'm always amazed at the fact that some people feel the need to try & drive in this shit. if you just go outside & walk in it & it feels as slick as owl shit then it's quite likely that you wont be able to drive on it. add the fact that seattle has all of those hilly roads & you have all of the ingredients for a classic cluster fuck. probably a female who was trying to get to her hair dresser for that all important ice storm hairdo

  • What to do when it snows and ice. Number one, call in to work. This one should be easy as people hate work anyway. Number two, lock your car up in the garage and don t move until weather is super clear. Number 3, make sure you cook some pop corn then look out the window and watch the entertainment.

  • drift that shit

  • uhh why are we comparing countries? i'm pretty sure that the country you live in has little to do with how intelligent you are as we are living in the international internet age... there are people of varying intelligence in all countries.

    now that that is said, WHY do they keep going? seriously, if you saw every single person who attempted to drive fail, WHY would you try it yourself?

  • and i always wondered why the world thought us americans were idoits....now i know

  • the men were just sandoing on the road, but it was the women drivers...like always...

    OLEG!!!, GET ON XFIRE!!!!

  • Yevgainy I told you I am going to start limiting my time on the computer Plus I need help onhow to make the vista ultimate files Bootable it didn't work!

  • The guy shouting 'help!' at 0:25 doesn't sound like a woman at all :)

  • you never know, it could be a transvestite.

  • Wait! It was you :D

  • the SUV "slieder" should be banned of the streets for live.

  • What an idiot whoever posted this THIS HAPPENED IN WASHINGTON!!  Even the bottom says KING news from washington. what a retard.

  • actually this was from washington, i remember it lol

  • oh my god that sucks!

  • why are they even attemping to drive?

  • OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!

  • lol

  • Snow tires, chains, whatever you have, it won't help you brake more then a little bit. When you get over 20 mph in conditions like these you could have a 4 wheel drive off road vehicle with wide snow tires and you won't be able to stop yourself fast enough to avoid anything.

  • and this is why when it snows and is really icy, you just don't drive, stay home and enjoy the snow. don't sit there and try to drive... there is NOTHING so important that you can't just wait a few days to drive.

  • Pretty stupid people with their foot continuously on the gas.

  • What dumbasses

  • Just goes to show what impatient assholes American drivers are. Even when the moron in the SUV gets going straight, he's still on ice and too stupid to realize it or care..thinking he can 'handle it.' Making a few right hand turns and getting 70% on a stupid easy test does NOT a driver make. Morons.

  • this guy is just an impatient dumbass, the fact that he's american has nothing to do with it. so i believe i speak for every SENSIBLE american when i say "fuck you, euro-trash".

  • Hes from the USA, very sensible ;)

  • luvda5o and cloud20zero both have good points, to be honest. Not all Americans are impatient, or assholes; not all of them barely squeaked by the driving test; not all 50 U.S. states have tests of comparable difficulty (though I couldn't say if any of them are as hard as those in, say, France). But we Americans have made enough of a name for ourselves abroad -- culturally as well as politically -- to inspire comments like luvda5o's, so we can't just write it off as total bullshit...

  • perhaps they are the ignorant ones for writing all of us off for idiots....talk about impatience. there are geniuses and idiots in every country, and every country has different driving conditions. even though these people didn't make the best choices, the dilemma they are facing is understandable: they can't just leave their cars in the middle of the road/may have places they MUST get to....when you are on ice even a little gas takes you FAR, but still they shouldn't have even tried....

  • Fail.  Lol.

  • not all american drivers suck lithuanian guido...these people live on the west coast where it rarely snows, so they don't have as good of instincts when driving in snow as people in ohio or some shit. it's also hilly/mountainous as fuck which doesn't help their cause. people in chicago know how to deal with snow but it's flat as shit. throwing slopes into the equation would fuck anyone up, but that first guy is still retarded.

  • I live in america and well, the driving here blows. Terrible traffic system, terrible driver education, terrible drivers.

  • you should check out the driving in greece

  • the first drives seem to hit the gas at all time

  • love americandrivers :D

  • tsss this is nothing com to norway than you wil see some snow and alot chrashesXD

  • theres a thing called when u see ice on the road and your driving and u see ppl out of their cars dont be an idotic person and drive your car try to park it and not be like a big bowling ball in the middle of portland and get of the car till the road melts hmm thats a thought

  • How terrifying if you were in one of those cars! Hearing the guy yell for help at the beginning just makes me feel sorry for him. There's this thing called common sense, though....

  • why the hell were people trying to drive on that?

  • u are so fucking stupid men....lol

  • First one, hitting the gas like a dumb@ss, had to be a woman driver.

  • was this dude hammered

  • Seriously one of the funniest things I have seen.

  • Oh yeah... I remember that winter. Here is how the news cast went...

    Week before;

    "Expect snow, crews are ready!!" - No snow

    That Wednesday of snowfall;

    "Oh yeah, there might be snow flurries, no worries" - 8AM was bad. By 9AM all traffic has been shutdown.

    BTW, it was an awesome snowfall. Lasted 2 days. :)

  • Lasted a lot longer than two days souht of Seattle. Wher eI am the temps just barely got above freezing and our streets were coated with ice for about a week. I do remember this video though. Either these people had a seriously deluded sense of invincibility, or worked 'Come in our you're fired!' jobs.

  • ever notice how the cars always slide toward the right side of the screen? must be on a slanted grade.This actually happened to me once.

  • wow ke traversi da paura!!! ahahaha

  • hum...pinball on the ice and snow

  • holy shit....can you get any fucking dumber.

  • this is great...a bunch of dumb asses who don't know how to drive in snow or sleet......

  • Without snow tires your doomed... Everyone slid, that doesn't make them a dumb ass... Its easier SAID THAN DONE

  • don't know why you're getting negative responses. These people are accelerating on ice and making things much worse.

  • Holy Crap thats bad!!! It sounds like he was trying to speed up too.

  • I'd hate to see how badly the drivers from the Russian Tunnel Crash video would take to this road.

  • Just goes to show that most people think that if you have an SUV with 4WD that you can drive through anything. Even ice.

  • aahahahahah that guy won the bowling masters!!! he hit everything in the 4 corners! mofo american idiot!

  • Do they even have car in Portugal? Be good or I'll come and look for WMD in your country too.

  • yes we have cars here in Portugal. and please don't come to my country cause i don't like americans... and ur dollar is weak then euro so... i don't need u to come... asshole (.)

  • So what do you do you in the country, sell Sombreros or balloons or shit? You must be a pore ass country. Don't remember you in the olympics or anything. I have heard of the Portuguese man-of-war tho; I hear those are the only men that come from that country you third world piece of shit.

  • I replied to you idiot. Look up a few replies.

  • u r a fuckin idiot, typical fat american. u don't even know where Portugal is... bahh you think Europe and Asia are countrys. u don't remember Portugal sportsmen in the olympics cause u r an ignorant.. and about man-of-war? do you even know who discovered the world by sea? the best sailers ever? u r a piece a shit, but thats ok, the world like u that way.. keep it. ur economy is fucked up and the dollar still going down! prepare to crysis u son of a fuckin huge fat bitch. go eat macdonnalds!

  • Ha! You sure are pissed now aren't you Portuguese man-of-war? : ) Just remember: you'll never be an american no matter what you do. We may be fat over here but at least our woman don't smell like men and have beards. Besides, don't you guys piss in the streets over there, you dirty bastards?
