It was a dark and stormy night. Well not really, it was dark cause it was a quarter to midnight, but it wasn't really stormy. It was snowing though. I was driving home from my girlfriend's house and the closer to home I got, the more snow there was. I got to one point in the road where it turns right and goes down a hill, and it didn't occur to me that I should probably slow down because it hadn't been slippery at all elsewhere. Well when I got to the top of the hill I saw some tire tracks that didn't turn with the road but went straight. Oh crap... Well my car hit the turn and just like the other car didn't turn, just started sliding forward. Unluckily though, said car was still at the side of the road where it stopped and I was sliding right towards it. I started freaking out because I didn't want to hit the car so I tried to steer it away into the curb. That didn't work, but I did manage to completely turn my car sideways and my car slowed down really fast. I then slowly started going again and finished driving home. And that was my experience last night, it was both scary and kinda fun. Luckily for me it was so late so there wasn't any traffic coming the other direction.
Still need new tires...

that sounds terrifying! for both you and the other car. I think you NEED to get new tires ASAP, as well as, slow down in bad weather and on turns.
ReplyDeleteI actually just got new ones yesterday, and I replaced one of my bearings last night as well, and in the process I think I Kay have fixed my alignment problem as well.
