  • stop slamming the brakes!!

  • when you start drifting a little dont slam the brakes dumass hahaha

  • this is what happens when rednecks get snow

  • Public road drifting is fun, if your good at driving and the cops don't see you.

  • all you have to do : DON'T use the brake ! ! !

  • People are so stupid locking up their breaks! Abs doesn't help you on ice people! Pump your brake pedal to regain traction its not hard!

  • I don't get how people don't understand the concept of slowing down...

  • lets go the same speed as if the ice wasn't there yaaaaaaaaa.

  • @muffin8or no it's destracted driving

  • Fuck figure skating, this is the real deal.

  • lol how did a police car chase end up here??

  • Comment removed

  • The Real Arab Drifting :P

  • Do you not get icy roads in Tennesee? Is this a rare occurance, and people were not expecting it?

  • Tokio drift in Tennessee lol.

  • Person in the Jeep kinda had the right idea with steering into it. If they had gotten off the brakes and given it a little gas it would have been easier to control.

  • That's an icy bridge, not an icy road -___- news twisting every story

  • if the roads are so icy you can see your reflection in the road...shouldnt you just stay home?

  • why is it only SUVs or pick up trucks having problems??? at 0:14 the mini is fine

  • @2f4st4you Because they think if they have 4wd they have everything...

  • They should have lessen the ir in the tyres tht helps..

  • the accident at 0:30 was a little bit of a hard landing! ouch.

  • Notice how all the sliding vehicles are trucks or SUVs? These jackasses think that because they have a truck or SUV, that means they can drive fast in an ice storm... fail!

  • @TheSouthernGun well, if you have a 4x4, most people think.. oh i have all this traction! ok, now, they may have good take off, just now they have got to worry about stopping!

  • Apparently lots of people don't know this. When you are on ice, don't break enough to lock the wheels. If it starts skidding, release immediately. Shift to lower gear and use motor breaking. Do not allow the car to go sideways, once you're beyond about 20° you're screwed. Use the little grip you have to choose the direction and avoid crashing rather than stand on the brake like a complete idiot, hardly slowing down and letting the car run where the road shifts it.

  • al of them are IDIOTS going too fast !

  • They're not driving poorly because they're women, you jerks. It's because they're from Tennesse.

  • how the fuck did i get here?

  • Driftin at its best :3

  • Instead of filming all day long, couldn't you throw some salt on this road ?

  • @Xenom44 Where's the fun in that?

  • @Xenom44 Lol salt on ice what good would that do? Suddenly as by miracle the ice will melt?

  • @carpediem1956 You may know seawater doesn't freezes at 0°C that's because of the salt in it. So if you throw salt on ice, the top will melt, then the salt will prevent the water from freezing again and the whole thing will slowly melt down. (Salt is not the best but you know they put sth we call "salt" on frozen higways in France).

    And i was saying that just because i could imaginate the man filming with his camcorder and an beer on the other hand you know, typical redneck.

  • @Xenom44 and risk rusting a car. 

  • Woman: Oh a icy road. *full break*.

    tztz.. women ^^

  • How can you not notice that the road feels or looks different! Specially on a bridge, come on!

  • Do they even have winter wheels?

  • I love how they film it for hours and nobody is willing to throw some salt or some sand on it, to help prevent accidents. Ass Hole move.

  • the tire should be romove some air

  • It should be illegal continue on drive if road conditions are that bad. It's too dangerous keep the driving with the fucking car squeezing all over the road. If that happened, all vehicles should park on the side and stop the traffic, someone could die.

  • thumbs up if 0:30 is a woman

  • Stop slamming the fucking brakes!!!

  • 0:30 driver didn't even turn the wheel, they just let the SUV go right into the wall. they may not have been able to save it, but at least try for god sake.

  • @nugunooch You know, on the point when women feel a crash they just do this

    *fetal position*

  • @muffin8or X'D 

  • If it is a yearly thing for such conditions, these people would have no excuse to drive at a inappropriate speed. Hell, 20mph on such a road would be too fast.

    BTW: How long did it take the highways department to get off it's butt and sand the road?

    I suppose it is in the Bill of Rights or something that you have a legal right to behave like a arsehole when in control of a lethal metal projectile.

    If this was near a school the consequences don't bear thinking about.

  • A lot of these drivers are dumb, I have been driving on iced over Missouri winter roads for 25 years and only had one close call.

  • I like how the woman in the trailblazer just hits the wall, loses the front bumper, and keeps on going. Probably on the phone with her bff.

  • please tell me that AP were trying to warn people, not just trying to get good footage...

  • I cant hear a word the reporter's saying

  • its an everyday thing in Alaska on the side roads to be like this common sense tells you Not to slam on the brakes and to steer into the slide. and take your foot off the gas. duh

  • i wanna go there with my scooter :P

  • hahahahaha

  • Is sand very expensive??

  • It's funny that all cars that slide are actually SUVs!

  • @R8FME and American SUVs-get some British or Swedish designs out there. Sweden, after all, is a country that experiences more than its fair share of snow. Also the Toyota Hilux.

  • @R8FME Was about to say the same thing. People in SUVs think they're invincible so cause the most accidents cause they drive like assholes

  • 0:30 - Really? Really?... Look at the tyres, they didn't even try to correct it!

    Also, most of these is a mix of too much speed/brake/accelerator and/or just plain fail driving. Learn to drive to the conditions people! Also, looks like several people need TC and/or ABS.

  • These people are drunk

  • bridge freezes before road surface

  • Notice that the Tacoma, has no problems but the jeep does

  • notice the airbag pops lol

  • 0:30

    Woman driver on a normal road

  • @muffin8or hahaha

  • @muffin8or

    Your bigotry against women isn't funny. Women are actually better drivers than men, which is why insurance cost more for you.

  • @AirForceGirl05

    I feel guilty now.

    No wait, that's indigestion.

  • there trying to drift on ice

  • Don't lock your break retard

  • :30 is too funny

    

  • STUPID ASS PEOPLE DONT KNOW HOW TO DRIVE SLOW!!

  • All they need is ABS braking system. With that full stop won't help you being stopped.

  • 0:29 the driver must be chinese, not only he/she slammed on the breaks but he/she doesnt realize you shouldnt steer towrds the curb

  • Idiots at 0:30, your supposed to turn the way your sliding no just leave your wheels straight -.-'

  • Skidding on ice means polluting environments. I wish I could let the driver know our tool. You can with it avoid troubles on ice, let the fuel economy alone.

  • 0:32 the stupid trailblazer is still going . WTF

  • nice shitty cars yall have in america ... shitty 4wd :)) and very shitty drivers ... as is shown in this video :)) ... you dont .. learn to drive in winter conditions .. ass holes before you kill somebody !

  • @hvtecfreak Opps and here we have some retarded euro thinking hes the best driver since schumacher.

  • yeah slam on those brakes, you idiots (Y)

  • I love to watch the airbag popping as the douche smacks the wall.

  • Well that helps them to learn to drift.

  • Things like this happen when retards dont know jack about physics. "STEP ON DA BRAKES!" and 'TURN DAH WHEEL" is all that comes to mind, not bothering to think of how the backside of the car is going to react when the mass is shifted forward and traction is taken from the rear tires. Then they step on the gas and turn the other way and get a 360 in their driving plan. If all you know how to do is step on the brakes you had better get an auto-corrective ABS system, they could straighten out circle

  • I love how critical everyone is of these drivers. Did anyone notice it's in Knoxville, TN? not New York or somewhere up north. Those of you who are critical, have you ever lost control on an icy road? You can learn everything you need to know and in that moment, forget it all. I've never slipped on ice, but I have hydroplaned in the rain. It's very scary. :(

  • why they drive so fast ? they know they are driving on ice , don't they ? stupid fucks

  • lets go drifting

  • aaaaaaaaaaahahaha i love how theyre all 4WD cept the mini.

    in arkansas i passed 5 cars stuck in ditches when we got 6 inches, and all of them were 4WD.

    just cause you drive a 4WD vehicle doesnt mean youre the king.

  • Love how instead of putting up a sign to warn people they just film the chaos.

    Also, I hate bridges/overpasses - there's one on a slope near my friend's place in Akron, OH where I almost rear ended someone (downhill + unsalted + ice) earlier in December.

  • poor trailblazer

  • 10mph or walk

  • those stupid drivers dont know how to drive! release the damn brake and hit the clutch (if u have1), u let the wheels roll and unclutch the wheels

  • Wow smart slam on your brakes on ice...........BRILIANT

  • title "Icy road has drivers sliding" *GASP* Well ill be. I would have never guessed FAIL

  • haha, when the white truck spins, theres another skidding of the road in the side of the picture

  • Lols, why were they going so fast..

  • trailblazer was beast

  • The mini has awesome suspension design since 1959, that made it has the ability to drive pass that normally. wahaha

  • 0:16 Way to go, making all us jeep drivers look like idiots.

  • Why do all the 4wd skid and the 2wd doesnt?

  • @m0eme the others are breaking !

  • typical usa drivers, cant drive on ice :) I guess all of them are women too expect the mini cooper ;)

  • dumb ass drivers stay home morons

  • Why didn't the Guy with the cam warn these people?

  • they put " Watch for ice on bridges" Sign for a reason.

  • Nice recovery with the Range Rover Discovery.

  • The best thing to do over ice is keep the tires spinning as normal and keep off the brakes! They start skids when the tires lock up.

  • Idiots driving too fast and probably using summer or cheap tires...

  • looks like fun...

  • i bet there is a sign before that bridge which reads .. "bridge freezes before road surface"

  • typical trailblazer out of control

    

  • DRIFT

  • Four wheel drive vehicles do not give you any advantage on ice or snow if you are stupid.

  • @GTVAlfaMan Don't watch rally races much, do ya?

  • @l337pwnage

    You just proved my point. The key word being "stupid".

  • @GTVAlfaMan Ya, I completely misread your post. Unfortunately I don't remember what I thought it said cuz that was a month ago.

  • Bridges always freeze first. Remember that.

  • Notice the ones sliding are the ones locking their wheels, don't lock your wheels because if you do you will lose all chance of control

  • U PANIC! U DIE!

  • Go faster it's ice whats the worst that could happen?

  • people going too damned fast for conditions...

  • Can't  you drive if roads are little icy.

  • why is everyone driving so fast over and obviously icy road?

  • Wow did it look like at 0:30 - 0:34 the person gassed into the wall?

  • couldn't people just buy winter tyres? it woulnd't cost as much as when they crash. i'm not saying it would help a lot in this conditions, but it sure would a little.

  • lol

  • 0:21 its DK coming back to reshoot Tokyo Drift!!

  • The mini cooper didn't wreck because the driver didn't panic and slam on the brakes.

  • @ltrebl No the mini didn't wreck because he/she was smart by driving slow. Everyone else thinks if they have a 4x4 they can drive faster

  • i love how some1 had the determination to stay outside and film that all day, but didnt have the courtesy to put a warning sign up. well i guess it wouldnt make good tv if they knew it was comin

  • NOTICE HOW MOST OF THESE DUMB FUCKS ARE DRIVING SUVs !! WAKE THE FUCK UP IDIOTS !!!! ICY ROADS NOT SAFE FOR -ANY CAR !! JACKASSES !!

  • @ :42, that driver got lucky not to hit that white truck. And @ :30 I love how they just kept going like "I hope no one saw that..."

  • one time I drove 8 hours on the freeway in holiday traffic, only to hit a patch of black ice literally outside my driveway, went nose down ass up into a ditch and had to be towed :(

  • just drive slow u dumb fucks.... people still drive like assholes...even when there is ice on the ground

  • everyone belives if you hit ice lock the tires up , hasent any ever told them thats the last thing you wana do ide rather not bother slowing down but have the abilty to steer.

  • rear weight and driving 10mph will help these dumbasses out

  • you cannot steer with locked wheels. thats what abs is for. but i hate abs

  • i would've been hella scared!!! i hate driving in the winter and that road looked like an ice skating rink!!! seriously lol

  • Id be so mad if I was in the black trailblazer

  • @Newyorkgiants6597 You woulnd't have been if u knew how to drive lol. he didnt turn his wheel at all(shouldve been turned ot the right), and was going too fast in the first place, lmao he was just asking for the wall to kiss his bumper

  • I personally enjoy driving in the winter. Just got to keep a cool head when the back end of the vehicle comes around on you. You don't have to be a good driver, just a smart driver.

  • this is were driftin skill come in handy

  • SUV = Sliding / or slightly / Uncontrollable Van

  • I love how that trailblazer hit the wall and kept going

  • @JeepGCOverland47 Lmao. Agreed! Didn't even bother to get out and check..

  • Anyone else notice the normal 2WD mini cooper just drive totally normally over it?

  • @mooseling1

    german engineering

  • @enduromaster Originally british ;)

  • @mooseling1

    new mini is german, bmw part

  • @mooseling1 He probably was using Bridgestone Blizzaks. My dad works at the Tire Rack and tests these at indoor ice skating rinks. They have thousands of microscopic air bubbles all throughout each tire which act like mini suction cups. They also have micro fibers in them that bite the ice. They are so good, that with proper breaking you can make the squeal on ice. He has them on his BMW, and I was able to turn hard and break without slipping. You still need to know how to drive in the snow.

  • @mooseling1 german engineers :)

  • @mooseling1 the mini cooper never applied brakes.

  • @RichieLT exactly.. in ice and snow its more driver skill than 2WD or a 4X4. Dont get me wrong, i have a 4X4 and it makes everything much easier in snow but if you cant drive in snow or on ice you will crash or get stuck just the same.

  • @mooseling1 I point you to my comments 10 months ago.....totally agree!

  • @mooseling1 ye that was because he did'nt break! U have to not break in those conditions!

  • @ashystyle

    The word you are looking for is "brake".

  • @mooseling1 its because everyone here that fucks it up end up braking quite hard on the Ice.

    This'll bring the back end around and cause them to crash. The mini was fine as he carried on going in a straight line and didn't lock up his brakes.

  • @mooseling1 the problem is all those idiots that BRAKE....if you just drive slowly and DONT BRAKE so hard, everything will be ok...

  • @mooseling1 Yeah, twats in 4x4's are always good for a laugh, its the over confidence

  • @mooseling1 it's a smaller car. and the mini driver didn't slam on the brakes like the SUV dudes. speed + mass - grip = trip to the bodyshop  If you are on ice don't jerk sthe steering and dont slam the brakes (unless you got some hi-tech brake system that compensates) , just let it roll in a lower gear.

  • @deathmare88 What he said. Learning to fucking drive is a better way of dealing with ice than buying some huge ass 4WD. 0:30 is a great example of someone who hasn't got a clue at all but thinks that having a 4WD somehow makes them magically immune to road conditions. Its basic physics really, if you want to turn then don't do other stuff that will reduce effective friction at the same time.

  • @mooseling1 That's because the driver must have known how to drive on the ice. Most people panic and jam the brakes on, the driver of the Mini didn't brake, not for long anyway so the wheels didn't have a chance to slide.

  • @mooseling1 Less heavy, more modern, lower graviry centre... 4WD is everything what you have to avoid on icy roads!

  • @mooseling1 MiniCooper was the only one with Front Wheel drive.... all others that skidded were Rear Wheel drive....

  • the other 4x4 did not have 4x4 on, land rover is permanent 4x4 system.

  • I've heard that absolutely NOTHING will hold against black ice. NOTHING! If you know it's going to be treacherous out there, if you can, STAY HOME!

  • @1958boomergirl Tires with spikes. Problem solved.

  • the (assumed) woman at :30 had the best strategy, dont bother steering into the turn, better to have the jersey wall stop you then dry pavement.... idiot

  • @myyz400 hahaha. i love how you assumed how the only person to actually wreck their vehicle was a woman. if it wasn't for being over youtube, i would give you a hand shake.

  • the heck you're on about? they are practicing for the new Grand Prix season.....

  • Please, they're not sliding on the ice, they're power-sliding!

  • Should be called SUVs cant handle the ice.Or snow.Or rain.And they pretty much suck in the dry weather too.Must be something about the awesome box shape that attract hicks and soccer moms alike.

  • idk why but the mini cooper seemed funny to me

  • the reason why these assholes slide is because they press the breaks for too long

  • aye! i love watching people slide on the ice but i love being the slider myself too! blizzards are so fun to drive in.

  • lolol love people who can't drive on ice. oh "SHI- i'm sliding, SLAM BREAKS"

  • 4x4 does Absolutely nothing when you already have momentum. it only gets you going.

  • haha people need to learn how to drive. specially southerners that come up to Michigan and drive 2 mph in 1 inches of snow or that last time i was in NC there was a mild rain storm and 75% people pulled over and another 10% wrapped around a pull or tree lololol its funny but annoying

  • americans probably not know what winter tyres mean

  • @londonas2 winter tires dont do anything on ICE lol

  • @Benny32392 they do trust me

  • @londonas2 fuck you ever been in america during winter? try driving in wisconsin or mn or north dakota and you tell me if snow tires matter. its all on how you drive

  • @XeXbanqz mate i lived in a country that a temepratu of minus 40 to minus 60 in winter and now u telling me that the tyres don't help u on ice seriously mate if you don't know how winter tyres are madfe why even comment

  • @XeXbanqz Wow Your Fucking stupid your saying if you have summer tires on they will work just as good as winter tires...like are u a fucking idiot...I live in Canada, Just so you know we do have internet up here and computers and yes we do have vehicles. And we get a fuck of a lot more snow than you americans do so shut your fucking mouth you piece of shit, because if you came up here with summertires you wouldnt even make it across the border because u cant get any traction you fuck

  • @BranRCarl lol fuck you you dont need to have different fucking tires for the seasons i had baja widetrack h/ts for summer and winter ill stick with my goodyear wranglers JUST FUCKING FINE FOR ALL SEASONS. and are you fucking kidding me on snow? i live in northern wisconsin i didnt know that 20 miles MADE SUCH A FUCKING DIFFERENCE!!
