****in snow. I went out this morning, got gas..was heading home and barely made it up this one hill in my town. I get goin on the downside, I kept the car in 2nd gear at about 2 grand.,..i was doin about 15-20 or so. The road has a big crown in it from an intersection and I guess due to the crown the car dipped and I lost it. Car went sideways for a little bit then to a complete 180. I then got the car to the side of the road facing the wrong way, but I was up against the side. So I threw on the flashers. An older guy walks over to me from across the street..."goin a little fast?" "no, I had the car in 2nd doin 20 if not less" Â*then he disgreed and said I was goin faster. He also tells me I almost hit his tenants truck when I spun out, I was about 20ft away from the damn truck...so I just said whatever. I then get the spiel of how I should get out of the car so people don't hit me because he was a safety officer in glen rock and he knows. Regardless that I'm already on the side of the road with my flashers on. He also went on to tell me I need to get outa there and how come the other people are having no trouble. So I said "No **** I need to get out of here, if the road wasn't so slick, I would get out...and the other people who have gone by that have made it is because they are either FWD or have 4 wheel drive" He didn't really say much regarding that...so he then proceeds to tell me how to drive to get out....he was really aggravating me. So I'm ready to head down the street but there are 2 cars coming..so I'm stopped waiting. He then yells to me "I'm holding traffic on this side..just go" So I had to tell him I was waiting for these 2 cars to pass by. So I got going, found a street that had a clear path..made it as far as I could up the hill..got to a point where I couldn't go anymore..noticed a little driveway/parking lot to my right behind me..threw it in reverse and parked it. Asked the owner if I could leave it there till the roads got clear and he said no problem. My town is clear now so I just brought it home. Best part of today was....I was wearing pajama pants and moccasins during this whole thing Â*
