Slowest accident ever recorded

Two 4x4 6 wheel trucks collide on an ice covered street in front of my house. The salt/plow truck was trying to use the plow to keep from slipping, but if he had driven up the hill backwards, his salt spreader would have been much more helpful. The two cars on the street to the right are from an earlier accident, and the car to the left somehow managed to stop by getting the car up against the curb.

i love how at 01:21 that mini van has no trouble getting up the hill

@steveman03 Yeah, it doesn't take long for salt to work it's way through the ice... even just sitting on top of the ice so there's something for the tires to grip onto.

why would someone leave the black pick up truck in the street like that.

[antoncolbo]

@elr2141979 The dark truck slid there out of control earlier. There were cars further up and down the hill that slid / stopped in odd places. Once those vehicles were stopped, the drivers wouldn't dare trying to move them... start moving and you never know where you'll end up or what you'll crash in to further down the hill.

I downloaded this clip off my cell phone, and the sound got corrupted, so it's just a bunch of crap noise.

question for anybody to answere! :P

does it help if u put one side of the tires in the grass and have the other two on the road? do u get better traction maybe?

[antoncolbo]

@LanciaTek If you have "posi-traction" / locking drive train where if one wheel starts to spin, the power is then transferred to the opposite wheel, that helps a lot as long as the other wheel is on a surface that you can get traction, or if you're going down the hill, getting one set of tires off onto the shoulder or somewhere you can get some traction, you can "brake" and not loose control. It can be extremely difficult to control once you start to slide on ice.

@elr2141979 uhhhh....for the same reason yellow truck "parked" itself next to it,maybe... duh! @ 0:26 you could see smoke and lights from black pick-up ,meaning somebody is sitting in that truck which came to a stop after sliding on ice.

That was just a trick the yellow trick did to talk to the other guy in the Chevy pickup truck..lazy! can't get out and walk to the truck
