    Default I almost lost my EJ1 (fuckicyroads) |Khris H.|

    After leaving my house on my way to work @ 12:30 i was only 2mins away from my house. I was rolling about 12-15mph and hit some serious ice which cause the car to begin to slide to the right.. My quick thinking i slowly applied the brake locked the steering wheel to the left, pulled the e-brake and held on.. The car then came to a stop like THIS:

    1


    2


    3


    4


    5


    6


    7


    8


    After waiting for about hour and a half for AAA my neighbor stopped in his way back in from work, then went to his house and got his Ford Excursion and pulled me out.. The car is totally fine, just lookin at these pics im still shaking my head..

    I was on the gas when it was sliding, i hit the gas a few times but it was steady going that direction so i said i might as well try to stop it plus i was not tryin to go off the edge..

    I have AAA Premium so they placed me as the next call because i told them my car was in the road but they called me and told me two of their dispatch trucks got into wrecks while i was waiting so they short staffed..

    Wow that was lucky. You probably could have not hit the brakes and just straightened the car out and gone down the road. But it doesn't matter cause you didn't hit the tree. congrats on the save

    Glad it didn't hurt your car, but I just wanna know... Why did you hit the brakes and pull the e brake? It's a FWD you should have steered away from the bank and pumped the gas...
