    Stupid schools! They supposed to be teaching out kids and they dont even have the sense to put snow chains on the buses that carry the kids!

    At least they weren't going fast. Yeah they didn't have chains and they should've, but what's done is done. There's no sense it getting mad about it. Hopefully they learn their lesson.

    Most definitely. Especially grammar, proof reading and proper punctuation. :boink:

    On another note, at least you know they have good insurance what with the precious cargo they carry and all that.

    That was the first thing I noticed was that it hit another Taco. Ya they were showing that on the news every 10 min it seemed like.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Maybe an ABS problem. THAT is exactly when and why I want the wheels to lock up (or at least be able to pump the brakes) but.................. fuck it. I guess someone smarter than me has decided it's better the vehicle doesn't stop and it makes for less "paperwork" when you can just blame the operator. Go figure

    I caught myself telling my computer to shut the fuck up until I remembered to mute the volume.

    Screaming while filming something is almost as bad as vertical video syndrome...

    People should learn to drive in snow.. You don't just lock everything up and hang on... front wheel was turned hard right and locked up. let off the brake and it woulda turned. That's what abs does. People who complain about abs don't realize that ABS prevents the wheel from lockin up, so that you still have steering control.. If they lock up, you still go sliding through the intersection or whatever but with no steering ablility

    In my opinion if the wheels locked up at the top of the hill and stopped the vehicle before the point of no return there wouldn't have been this problem but I could be wrong

    you DO NOT want your wheels to lock up in the snow or any other slick surface. Locked up wheels always slide further and out of control with no ability to steer.. if your wheels lock up, let off the brake so you have some control.
