Driving to work in the snow.......

I slid sideways a bit!




I only went in very slowly, and the car appears to fine.

 

Oops! It appears that you were lucky enough for it not to have hit the fence or anything.

 

i cant quite understand how that happened. did a gust of wind blow your car off the road?

 

maybe after he lifted the handbrake on it

 

It doesnt look like it, but that is actually at the bottom of a hill. I was going fairly slowly (less than 20), changed down a gear, feathered the clutch back in, and started sliding.

By that time I guess I was doing just over 10mph

The road was actualy compacted snow, and very slippery, and I guess that even gently slipping the clutch back in was enough to start me off.

I then just slid off the camber and into the ditch.

 

You were lucky! Did you get it out or is it still there?

 

got pulled out by friendly 4x4 driver
