All jokes aside, about how people in the Willamette Valley don't know how to handle a little snow, this video from a Portland, Oregon news station, has to be seen to be believed. It's caravan pinball!

The first vehicle, in particular is amazing, if I may be allowed so lukewarm a word, for its sheer . . . uh . . . perspicacitylessness. I mean, if slamming on the gas then the brakes works so well on ice, why not do it again, and again, and again?

I know my tolerance for idjit drivers is minimal at best, but I grew up in Massachusetts, and earned my chops driving in Boston, which some have described as the worst place to drive evar! But even the most staid Sunday afternoon country drivers have got to admit this kind of snow stupidity is ridiculous, right? Right??

Thanks to John Aegard, one of The Wordos, for the heads up on the video.
