I spun out on our road last night!

We live on a dirt road and had about 3inches of snow yesterday. The road was grated (but not very well) and I was only going about 15 mpr. I had dh's car (pontiac grand am gt) and hit a very slippery patch, did a 180 and landed with my back end in a pile of snow. (thank God no one was coming). The car is so low that I could not get out. Of course it was the ONLY part of the road that did not have cell phone service. A nice women stopped and together we used our ice scrapers to scrape out all the snow around the tires and then she pushed the car while I drove it out. It worked! Thank God! It was scary, yet exciting doing a 180 in the middle of the road. I'm just thankful I didn't hit a tree!

Grand Am's are nortoriously horrible in the snow which is why we got rid of ours.

Hey. I'm not that bad of a driver...lol. Although, I'm never going to hear the end of it from dh. (I should have never have told him).
