That's how you drive in the snow

It just happened to me this morning. I drive a semi truck, and was in a I35 in MN. I felt the road was icy, and conditions were bad, but as a trucker you have to adjust the speed and keep going. I am carrying a light load, and I gust of wind caught me, and jackknifed my trailer, lost the control of the truck, and started heading towards the opposite side of the highway. Using the experience, I was able to straighten the truck in the median, but I wasn’t able to avoid hitting the divider railing. I pulled back onto the highway, came off the first exit, and assed the damage. I am just lucky that I was able to steer away from all four wheelers and other semis. Please appreciate the risks truck drivers face each minute on the road to provide for comfort of the rest of the citizens. Stay safe this winter.

But why are they not out here taking action to halt the carnage?

I've been driving in the snow for many years and I have to say, it's not that complicated My daily driver is a manual FWD economy car and, while it has admittedly brand new winter tires, it handles the snow just fine The key to winter driving is keep your distance, make slow and gradual turns, gradually brake as sudden will cause issues, and slow down Like in all driving conditions, panicking makes it worse Edit: yes I'm fully aware of black ice, and there really isn't anything you can do about it, but my points are still relevant. If your area allows studded tires, then use them Secondly, if ever you're stuck in snow (and ON the road) turn off the traction control and gun it. It sounds counter productive but you will get out. If that doesn't work, press and hold the TC button to turn off stability control and do the same (since in some cars, turning off TC doesn't mean it's off). Just make sure to turn it back on when you're out!

Y’all can say whatever you want. IMHO, when the roads are icy like that, you’re better off not even going out on them at all until the ice melts away. There’s no substitute for reducing your speed, but sometimes even that doesn’t work, as we saw here. Icy roads are just too unpredictable, and you just don’t know how your vehicle is going to react on them.

When traveling in bad weather, I keep emergency kit in my trunk. Phone charger, Tire chains, kitty litter, shovel, boards, emergency lights, blankets, food, water, coats, hats,gloves,scarfs,and extra gasoline (only on extreme conditions). I know this sounds extreme, but if you get stuck, your appreciation will be greatly. For the last thirty years, I never go out of the house without my snow cleats. This is very important to have, for anyone working outside, such as police. Golf shoes, football, anything with cleats. Or make your own with rubber tubing, duck tape, etc. then I’ve used little bolts and screws. Good luck and be safe

What a lot of pickup truck owners don't realize or forget (unfortunately) is that many pickups have a traditional 4wd hi/lo setup that defaults to its 2wd mode; thus many are not full time awd and on top of that, there's no weight over the rear wheels if you're not carrying cargo and so the truck becomes very prone to losing control in icy conditions; even if you have off road tires. And this is clearly captured in videos like these.

ProTip: If you drive a RWD vehicle on ice, and your back brakes are worn/out of adjustment, your rear wheels will literally push you down the road with your front wheels locked because there's not enough braking force to overcome the power being applied to the wheels. The only way to stop may be to shift to Neutral. Been there, done that.

Thanks for posting these videos Dan. You used to go to my neck of the woods (394 west of Minneapolis) but you’ve been ignoring us. Actually, with the catastrophic drought we’ve had for the last couple of years it would probably be a wasted trip anyway. I understand why there are many people promoting snow tires here but, after having driven in 46 Minnesota winters, I think all snow tires do is give people a false sense of security and embolden them to drive faster and more carelessly when a lot more caution is called for. I did have a set of snow tires on my 1985 2WD Ranger which I also loaded up with 400lbs. of tube sand, but a 2WD pickup is pretty light. I think the most dangerous part of driving in winter, and it’s something that is seldom mentioned, is changing lanes, especially if the plows haven’t been through. I see more spinouts and crashes by bad Minnesota drivers because they play their passive-aggressive lane-changing games in the snow just like they do in the summer. You have to have good situational awareness and slowly ease into crossing over. When the wheel in front bogs down in the snow ridge between lanes is when the mistakes are made. People get jumpy or panic when the steering wheel takes that nudge and they think they’re losing control. That’s when they overcompensate and spin out. 46 years and it’s the same thing every year. E-a-s-y does it when changing lanes. Take your time, do it right.

St. Louis drivers are some of the worst in the country. Always speeding and clueless about driving in any bad weather.

That Ford Ranger has found an interesting way to navigate a snowy highway, I'll give him that.

One of the beauties of getting off work in the midnight or going to work in the midnight is we have all the interstates and streets to oursleves when dealing with this weather. You can do 5 to 10 mph all the way home without anyone else causing you to slide.

Some of these spinouts are in areas that had never had snow before. In many places now we will be seeing what used to be sunny are now snowing, what used to be snowing will be mild.

Blaming the climate boogyman for people's poor driving? That's a new one, NOT.

You’re saying it’s the weathers fault for bozos going too fast for the conditions? LOL

yes, v8 mustangs are great in the winter

More of these, please!

That blue Ford ranger pulled off the nastiest drift

Literally every approach to bridges has signs that say, road ices before bridge. Yet as you can see no one pays attention.

it's almost that time of the year again. Make sure you have snow tires installed in your car. Also adjust your driving habits accordingly, for instances increase following distance, dont rush, leave early etc.

always entertaining watching inexperienced drivers

‘Warning; icy conditions. Please speed up.’ Have fun!
