Nice driving

Hehe, yeah, it was (is) really bad. Black ice. We have about 5 inches of snow in the city, but underneath is ice. And those streetcar tracks don't help once your tire is on it. People just don't know when they need to stop. If it is too unsafe to walk, it is way to unsafe to drive.

Cheers from the city of roses,

Sascha.

Is this a kind of video-game or a joke?
My 84 years old mother, if she were still alive, would have shown better driving skills than this people are doing. But she was driving an Opel Corsa...

Inspite of what most people believe, all these heavy vehicles with automatic gear shift are the less suitable cars to drive in such conditions.

There are days, on which you better leave your car where it is. Or, considering that others don't do so, on which you better not have a car at all!

When the fire truck showed up I was actually hoping for a cool showdown, though. Slightly disappointed ;-)

There are always people not being nice to their cars. Today I found that one (apparently not winter and unfortunately no sound) incidentially, just after watching Volker's bumper car show.

Training for pinball championship? One free game for each crashed fire truck

Would make a fortune running the garage around the corner...
