!st snow this year and this happens

Well we got our first snow in N texas today and 3 mph around a corner and the car decided it didn't want to go the full turn and this is the result. It's a bad corner and have taken it thousands of times in bad weather and good weather. It got me today. Ended up walking back down to the intersection about 30 min after i got home to find my tow hook pop out thing and there were 2 car sitting there that had done the same thing as me. Ended up having 7 accidents at that corner today. Bad day Included a pic of the gentleman who was on the receiving end of it. He was really surprised by the amount of damage to my car.

i almost ate it fierce on PGBT and 183 this afternoon... Its not a fun moment when you are sliding sideways towards an overpass, slowly correct it and it overcorrects the other way! Stay safe man!

I avoid the Bush as much as possible in bad weather. It's hell on a sunny day as well.

I love how a dusting south of the Mason Dixon line causes this much chaos. I feel for the OP though but atleast your safe.

When we have bad weather and are stuck indoors, that's when we hit the bush. I guess it's different in other states.
