Worst Winter Driver This Year (according to Jalopnik)

Post by jkm311 »

I apologize for the brief language of the guys filming this, but I don't think I would have been able to hold back myself. I linked to the Jalopnik page itself, simply because their writers share my sense of humor. To a degree. Who knew a Kia could pull this off:http://jalopnik.com/5878570/

Scary. She was lucky to have kept that car under control, considering the conditions and her health. All of that on-coming traffic is darn lucky, too.

I would actually say this is the best winter driver this year considering most people would have crashed and this person managed to have control (sort of)... even if it wasn't on the road!
