Explorer merely got a flesh wound. And luckily, we haven't been hit by that storm.

Snow is a nightmare here in Seattle. Too many hills and for some reason people forget how to drive in snowy conditions every year...

Yeesh. And this wasn't even a real storm... only like 15 inches. I'd hate to see the damage they wrack up after a real Nor'easter.

Haha, wow thats pretty wild. If I were the dude filming from the window though I would have run down as fast as possible and told them to stop seeing the imminent damage they were about to do cuz now that just sucks for everybody and he could have helped them avoid it.

So? A real man would go outside naked. Not mention he would have immediately caught the attention of the drivers.

Ugh, the camera guy is very annoying, but yeah, that is kind of stupid. Doesn't seem like they could do anything else though.

That's one of the worst towing jobs I've seen. Honestly. In my crappy town, tow-truck drivers could have gotten that out without any damage to surrounding vehicles, in probably a foot more snow before they might have been in trouble. This is why big cities frustrate me. They usually don't know how to handle snow and everyone panics and does stupid crap.
