HeadCone 0 #1 February 5, 2007 http://youtube.com/watch?v=zMzeiMJQrvk It's like vehicular pinball. From the description: A snowstorm on the morning of Jan 16th 2007 left about 3-4 inches of snow on the ground in Portland, Oregon. This is what happens to people with too much confidence in their 4WD and zero experience driving on icy snow. Video was taken around SW Salmon and 20th Avenue, which is pretty steep (to be fair). --Head-- Turn off the internet!
