I don't see any comparison between Steve Booth's adventures and fighting his way through an ice storm out on the interstate and this video of urban 4 wheelers who don't have a clue and are not held to the standard as professional drivers. :shock:
yep, 20th and salmon nw portland. it has alot of hills and ice there.

UPDATE:

In today's Oregonian newspaper they had a story all about Mr. Volvo's wild ride. It turns out this driver is 79 years old and an executive at the Pendleton woolen mills. They actually gave his name in the article, which I find astonishing as I would want to remain anonymous if I were that driver. The odd thing is that if you watch the video closely, I believe that after he hits the pole he actually gets on the accelerator which then propels him into the brick structure and then the long slide down the hill to the pile of cars awaiting his arrival. Had he not accelerated he probably would have not hit the brick structure or the row of cars down the hill.

Budweiser salutes you Mr. pinball with cars driver.

I can't get over that after seeing people slide SIDEWAYS, that others would then try to drive on that. Great video though.

He probably tryed to jam the brakes, and hit the gas instead. He could have said f it after he hit the car and pole, but his family owns Pendleton Woolin Mills, and I doubt he's hurting for cash.
