    Thank you all for your continued viewership and support over the years! Stay tuned to this channel for new clips from the upcoming 2024-2025 winter season!
    Frequently Asked Questions:
    Did you shoot all of these clips?
    Yes, I personally shot every video on my channel on-the-scene with my own camera equipment (4K video cameras, drones and dashcams).
    Where is Icy Road Madness 4? Are some of these clips posted previously?
    You might have already seen some of these clips in the 4th part of the Icy Road Madness series. This is because it has been increasingly difficult to satisfy RUclips’s algorithm. For an unknown reason, RUclips stopped showing Part 4 to viewers shortly after it was uploaded, after only a few thousand views. So, I was forced to delete Part 4. Part 5 contains the clips from Part 4 along with new captures from the 2023-2024 winter season. RUclips’s algorithm has been very unpredictable and tends to favor compilations, while only showing individual videos to very few users. Many times I need to delete the individual videos and repost the clips in longer compilations - otherwise RUclips just stops showing the channel’s videos altogether.

      It's like that scene in star wars with the pod race, when rain starts hitting your windshield the road starts to roar with people in their 2024 dodge goliaths accelerating to 120 to 140mph. There's crosses all over the roads out here because of all of the death.

      They never trained themselves how to think properly when they panic. So they're not even thinking about the fact that the steering is useless with the tires locked up. And the closer they get to the object they are about to hit they usually press the brake pedal harder and harder as if it's going to stop any more than it already is. Similar to a deer in headlights. They freeze up on their actions to the point they are not taking the correct actions

Steer where u want to go, if the car over steering counter steer the car will aventually find grip and will straighten up. But remember, hard breaking is a no no, hard breaking will lock ur tires up, and all u can do if the wheels lock up is let jesus take the wheel lol and always look ahead for an out

    Scariest day of my life as a truck driver. I had to bring a set of empty doubles back to the terminal. It had snowed just an inch or two, but it was very cold out. So the snow doesn’t melt from the traffic, it just gets compressed. I stayed in the right lane and drove 30mph, and still I saw that rear trailer start to fishtail a few times.
    Trailers that are empty or very light are much more dangerous than heavy loads. They are more prone to skid and to tip over.

    I know some states use ice, which rusts the vehicles.
    Here in Washington state they use chemicals that destroy the undercarriage of our vehicles.
    So during the winter I take our vehicles through the car wash and they spray underneath our vehicles to try to save them from being destroyed.

    Driving in snow/ice is relatively easy. Step one, SLOW DOWN. Step two, dont use the brakes, or as minimally as possible. Step three, turn into a slide to keep car going as strait as possible. And lastly , dont practice your driving skills on the road, use an empty parking lot (cops still get mad but at least you wont hit anyone else). I was able to miss two cars at the bottom of an ice covered hill, despite unwillingly gaining speed, by not using the brakes. And yes, bridges freeze first overpasses and underpasses.

    Many problems created from driving in winter are due to summer tires or cheaply bought tires. I live in Canada, and good winter tires are a j they're so expensive here, so who can blame the person for getting what's in his/her price range. And I'm not too sure about the other provinces here, but in Quebec, it's law. So, no matter what, if you have summer tires on still after the change deadline and have an accident, you're automatically liable. So... basically, even if they're cheap, they'll save your ass in the long term. Winter hasn't hit yet, but it's getting quite cool here, and so yeah, soon enough, the car body shops will be busy in no time, lol.

    Some of the drivers spinning around in circles and end up stopping sideways in the middle of the road and then just SITTING THERE NOT EVEN TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY IS RIDICULOUS.

    Frightening that so few countries have mandatory slippery driving to get their driver's license. We have mandatory slippery driving and It is also illegal not to have approved winter tires between 1 December to April 15.

    the most amazing thing is that none of the cars have ABS working. that is, in fact, either their function is turned off, or it is not a function at all in this machine, because as much as I looked, they do not work at all in theory. and most of all, all that strikes is the truck drivers, that's where the professionalism is really there. to drive such a car and so masterfully a driver is generally super.

    because it's not practical to include driving on ice and snow as part of your driving test , you must practice on a less traveled street/road .
    when i use to live in upstate NY , i would pull out of my drive way , make sure no one is coming and then accelerate noticing at what point the wheels begin to slip . then do the same for braking . repeat several times to get a feel for the conditions .
    Each day is different according to temp. humidity , depth of snow etc.
    aside from that main rule is if there is no one behind you honking , you are going too fast 😂

    For over 20 years, I lived in Oregon and Washington State. Living at elevation in Washington, way out in the sticks, I would come out to a foot of snow. In my experience, the number one road hazard in snow and ice, besides speed, are the pick-up trucks and the 4 wheel drive vehicles! These people would fly down the road without weight in the back of the pick-up or some sort of traction control such as chains or snow tires. These vehicles were always in the ditch or, smashed into some other object. I drove my old 1985 Toyota truck 2 wheel drive in the worst conditions. Weight in the back, chains and attempting my best to stay away from other vehicles. My number 1 advice to people who must drive in adverse conditions such as snow and ice: SLOW DOWN!

    I live in Idaho. I love, every winter, seeing the nice and shiny sports cars and 4x4 trucks (usually with out of state plates), sitting at the near by body shop, with smashed front ends. Sadly, they almost certainly crashed into someone who was driving responsibly for the conditions. Friendly PSA. Snow and ice are slippery. Slow down!

    When will people understand that just because you have 4wd or awd, you are invincible in icy/snowy conditions. Yes, you can accelerate better, but you still have to stop. My recommendation, studded snowtires and slowing way down.

    From the South but have driven in snow many times. I never had a problem with all season tires, front wheel drive and common sense. People think 4wd gives them magic super powers in snow and it may help when you are starting off, but when moving you have the same 4 wheels on the road as a 2wd, and 4wd can't help you stop. I notice in these videos that on ice when stopping at the stop sign or stop light that no one seems to shift into neutral. It helps especially on the downhill to a stoplight or stop sign

    Also the semi truck drivers well done for saving your rigs.

    Do not lockup your brakes, you loose steering when wheels can't rotate. You will still be out of control but at least you can steer towards least path of damage!
