Gotta love idiocracy
Funny that the spectators are just watching the show instead of going up the hill to stop traffic.
stupid driving on icy roads
Why the fuck do people think they can drive around in a 2wd in this 🤣
Why is that road open? Texas isn't the only region that let's their drivers wander around on ice the video from Missouri had a thoroughly useless Cop talking to a tow truck driver by the side of the highway just watching drivers slam into a bridge all covered in Black ice. Ya know I rack it all up to the delusional state of alleged mind of these people to not believe anything is real until it whacks them right in the head.
Thesw pedestrians are clueless
Never get out of your car when there's another one bound to hit you. It's made to protect you.
Sounded like damaged birds
Texas is really full of morons.
You can safely give at least 2 Darwin awards out now. Those two in the beginning will for sure earn there's at some point soon...jeez.
Natural selection taking its course. If you’re too stupid to get out of the way you are going to get run over!
Hahaha I love it.
I know it's cliché to accuse Texans of not knowing what to do in the cold... But if you're just slid down an icy hill, don't stand in the middle of the road wondering why the car sliding toward you won't stop. If a car takes you out it's Darwinism.
thought “jurassic park 2” (boat scene) got it wrong. I guess not. people do wait to get hit by moving objects.
Well. Austin is full of liberals, so don’t expect too much logic from those people.
Getting out of the car and standing there was a very dumb idea...
Ice and a hill for a street glad im from the midwest i can look at the street and tell its iced and hasn’t been salted i would’ve stayed home didnt none of those people have horse?
The one at 30 seconds absolutely nailed it.
The driver at the end clearly was from the Northeast
Makes sense that so few of them know how to handle ice like that. This is the worst situation you can put a southerner in lol
I'm an asshole, I couldn't help laughing
The last driver must be from a northern state, cause they make all the other drivers look like novices 😆
Austin toilet libtards from california. 🙄🙄
No driving skills at all. Apart from the last one 👌
That Honda Civic driving straight not slipping at the end it was a surprise!
Everybody got summerwheels i see
Here's an idea. Someone go to the top of the hill and warn the cars.
never lock up your wheels in snow and ice.
The smart guy went into the snow where there's traction.
@Allan Patterson I know, man.
The snow becomes glazed in tire tracks. The snow also has drag which slows you down so you can at least slow to a stop.
Let it go let it go l don't to hurt everyone anymore
Oh gosh. Let OFF the brake guys 😬 Let off the break and feather it. When you slide, let off, then brake slightly, let off again, brake slightly, let off again...that's the pattern.
GLE, Cause that lambo movin fast
Y’all. Please. Just stay put when these weather conditions happen 👍
Wow. Talk about stupidity on all parties
Sees a car sliding to them. Also doesn’t move out the way.
0:32 - 0:42 swan lake
Thought I was watching an episode of The 3 Stooges around the white vehicle
That lady doesn’t know how lucky she got
Dumb de dumb dumb DUMB!!!!
Guessing the ones not having problems have AWD 😂
Just love to see stupid people getting out of their car standing next to there piece of shit cars just waiting to get hit too lol
bocce ball anyone?
I love watching liberals in action
Black Mercedes gets 5 stars for his driving lol
Legend has it that blue car is still going...
🤣
You guys need to get it together, 3 inches of snow is not an emergency.
Talk about a no-brainer I think these people have no brains
Everythings bigger in Texas Bigger idiots in Texas too huh can't walk but trying to drive
Ha ha 😆
Well it is Austin sooo
I lived in Killeen texas when it snowed the government ordered everyone go straight home come back tomorrow .
Uhhh sure lol I have a pound of beef here I was going to bring over anyways for myself
You seriously dont know how to move out of the way? Omg ....
I saw two skilled drivers, one was the last car. Made everyone else look stupid.
There was a lot of hit n runs that day
Lmao as someone from the Midwest watching Texans flail and struggle with mildly icy roads is endlessly entertaining.
Volvo performed the best....and someone should tell these folks that hills and ice is not a good mix 🤔
If you stay home, you would be okay and your car would Okay too. Your smartness doesn't work with mather nature.
moral of the story is: see ice and slam on breaks 😂
I get Texans not being accustomed to snow and sliding but theres no excuse for NOT moving out of the way of a 4,000 lb. car coming at you. Guess you can't fix stupid.
Just a tip from a northerner, never get out of your car until it is over. It's the safest place to be.
Idiots, all of them. Meanwhile people in Canada are laughing their butts off saying "Look at these screaming Neanderthals."
0:00 great idea - stand and watch how car slides towards you!
Don't slam on your breaks on ice.
The last vehicle all wheel drive! There's no beating it
0:34 this has to be worth some points
0:06 - 0:10 Monkey sound?
It's amazing that they would leave their vehicle and expect the next car not to hit them. Typical liberals😤😤😤
Morons standing there try to move the cars if you can’t gtfo And warn oncoming drivers
Love it 😆 🤣 😂
Don't ever be the people waiting for the slow rolling car to catch up to you and hit you. Just casually walk out of the way at least
What a pair of twats. They could have been killed there. But to be honest it’s soo funny watching all us numb nuts trying to drive in the snow that have no clue 🤣
😂😂😂 have they ever heard about putting chains on your tires to go on ice?
@Jr. Moreno that's why this video exist right? Great logic if you just watched the evidence.
Have you ever heard that Texas doesn’t get these types of snow storm?
Most Texans don't claim Austin anyway!
30 yes ago I saw this all over austin
Perfect example of Texan intelligence. 🤣
These drivers are doing everything possible wrong
How the fuck you explain being hit by own car while it's moving? Cuz you're not in it.........with your seatbelt on?
Only stupid people would even try to travel in this.
All those people standing watching, they could have easily ran back in the house and brought some salt out and salted the road as a kind gesture to save life, white people are dumb
Give it to the new meaning of Slip Sliding Away doesn't it
We used to set up lawn chairs and a grill at the bottom of steep hills in the winter. Better than TV it was...
@McNihilation haha i would to just from writeoffs i worked my way up to a 10k car from a 1k car.
👍 I would've parked my car out there too... I could really use some money right about now.
can tell that they're southern drivers and not yankee drivers
slick move or luck with that silver suv
I understand people living where they do but come on, there are enough HUworld videos accessible even in TX to give them an idea, or perhaps, once in their lifetime just travel somewhere where there is snow, just a short fly away, no passport needed. I’m gonna yell at a car that is out of control and perhaps it will stop.
Just stay out of New York if you drive like that in a bit of ice.
You see a car coming to you and you know it's gonna crash into and you don't move 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
This is what happens when you have no idea how to drive in snow/ice. Really isnt difficult to do if you just follow some basic guidelines lol. This dude was braking hard, horrible idea.
Answer: No they didn't learn anything. they'll be out there next year doing the same damn thing thinking that it's different.
As someone from New Jersey we have Texas summers and Russian winters so I truly feel for these people and it's unfortunate to see .Luckily everyone was ok but people listen if an SUV is sliding toward you try to run away from it standing by the car waiting for impact isn't gonna help that lady by the driver side door was lucky she didn't lose her life..run away from the car or jump in and close the doors the least thing you wanna be is a human barrier between two vehicles or get hit by a vehicle that's getting hit by another vehicle
Living in Colorado, this is hilarious
Looks like common sense is completely gone here in Texas.
Lol, those folks down there had no idea how to deal with that weather...
People lock the brakes, should not break just steering the car
So Texas haved never learn how to drive in icy road....
The stupidity is beyond me.
Cars sliding every where. But imma stand out side the car...
Can't any of these people feel that their cars have no traction on ice?? Why they going so fast?
Deregulation they say.. will save Texas lots of money... reality... it cost lives and a lot of money due to incompetence. Do better Texas, elect a governor and senators that care about you.
Third graders know about deregulation? Really? I guess it takes third- grade level math to not understand that Texas hasn't ever had a need for a massive fleet of plows or salt trucks. Ever. Since the development of the automobile. But you think they should have spent untold billions maintaining such a fleet for a century. Ok, genius.
@James England Ask any third grader to explain to you how deregulation factored into this, or you can research the info for yourself. But I’ll give you a hint, it’s called being prepared. Lmao
What does deregulation have to do with record snow and ice in a state that almost never sees any of that? They supposed to regulate the weather?
What a bunch of idiots . Why would you even get out of your car if you see a car coming down the hill ?
