happened to me once 2 years ago, cop didnt even notice neither my passenger or I was wearing a seatbelt. Best part is we got video. And then exactly 2 years later, guess what it snows and a cop shows up again, but got away with another warning for careless driving.

On another note we got a very slight bit here, enough to make some roads slick but not enough to have fun and get in trouble in

Thanks. I'm pullin my motor to fix up a little oil leak.

I remember waiting for my wife at a store and pushing carts with the bumper to make a slalom with a box at the end for a sweet parking job and I was going up and down the slalom (sideways in snow) and drift-parking in the box when I notice a cop at the end of the parking lot just sitting their, so I do the sensible thing and do it one more time b4 I park and wait for the miss. when I get done and stop the cop pulls in behind me gets out and comes up to my window. " you know I give out tickets for that kind of stuff..." "ya I was bored waiting for my wife" I say with chuckle, he chuckles too "ya I do that sometimes too, well I was watching for a while and it doesnt seem to me that you are out of control, just put those carts back so no one hits them" and he left. on the other end I have had cops tell me I am going to FLIP my car going 10mph around a cone on a snow storm?!?! WTF that isnt possible!

Tuesday night and Wednesday morning the national weather service is saying 6-10 inches for The Dalles, before it turns to freezing rain and then rain.

Wow for FWD This Subaru did better then i thought!!! i was going 55 on the high way with no problem and changing lans slowly it did it with no problem. I'm sure any quick reaction could cause this car to spin but i'll just have to avoid that i guess.

This is alot more fun to drive then the civic (In the Snow)

Y'all need some more velocity! When you flick the wheel to get the back end to step out, blip the throttle and then lay on it till the car is hitting around 4000rpm and just keep managing the throttle that way with a little steer, countersteer. You can yank the ebrake to break traction too if you want.

I'm about done too, cant stand it snowing and then melting and making everything a muddy mess the next day all the time. winter is officially over, the river is unfrozen and flowing freely even, bring on the sun.

haha you should move to WI then, we have been in spring mode for a few weeks now but have still ended up with prolly 7-8 inches in the past 2 weeks or so. made for 1 day of fun after each snow fall but then it all melted the next day.

Ahh winter in GA. Just like spring, summer, and fall just a different temperature.

Snow is rare here, and if it does happen it is just a dusting. Still makes everyone clear out the grocery stores, though a hurricane rolls through and no one leaves -.-

Finally got some powder in my area. Since the Outback (and the Brighton) are not street legal I had to drive the WRX out onto the roads. The local DOT hadn't plowed any of the roads, so I did their job. lol

Maybe over in Cromwell. Here in Willimantic, we got ice, which got taken care of by the town and DOT long before I got on the roads.

So, I found me a parking lot. Got my silver car it's inaugural donuts.

That's what happened to me last year on Christmas Eve. Wasn't trying to do anything stupid, and I lost control sliding into a curb. Bent my rear hub and messed up the wheel bearing. Made out better then most accidents.

my old roomate/subaru buddy went sideways over some rail road tracks once :smt009 3 rims, rear lateral links, both knuckles and bearings on one side, front tie rod, one front rotor, and front bumper were destroyed. I thought the car was going to flip when it happened (i was with, NOT driving). got to keep a sharp eye out when snow drifting!
