Portland drivers in the snow



Uploaded by: Hugalugah
Video Description:
A snowstorm on the morning of Jan 16th 2007 left about 3-4 inches of snow and ice 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).

Dont laugh, this is a PDX ice storm and NO ONE could drive in this. In one, many years ago I got stuck down a hill and a tow truck with chains on it tires couldnt even get me out. Ice is everywhere on everything, its a hazard to even walk in this weather! I've never seen anything like this in NYC.

C:The gentleman in the volvo in the first crash was knocked unconcious after the first impact, causing him to floor it. He was out cold. Also, the woman yelling at the beginning did crash, just not as bad.
D: Some of the action after the video stops was the best. You may not be able to tell, but the fire truck is attempting to block the hill about 1/4 of the way down. After it parked, 2 cars went into the side of it, one completely stuck underneath. There were many more accidents.

This was from the roof of my building (Hadley house). I'll go over the basics once again:
A: The road was pure ice about 2 inches thick at about a 15-20 degree downslope (it's SW salmon st @ 20th)
B: There were people a the top of the hill and all major intersections (myslef included) that were trying to stop people. However, this is the base of the rich neighborhood in portland (west hills), and thought they were warned, most decided to go for it.
