Well i decided to go skiing today... Four of my friends and get in an acura mdx and off we go. I live in southern Nh we were going about 100 miles north for an over nighter at a mountain. we were doing about 80 when i see like the whole 3 or 4 cars in front of me put on they're flashers before they round the bend. So i just slow down to about 30 before i make the turn and bam its like a shot out of hell. 3 cars flipped over. CARS how does a car flip over going in a straight line? The bend that i went around was one of those easy curves that every highway has nothing amazing. But i soon found out good thing i slowed down to that speed because once i saw it i went to ease on my brakes, or lack there of. i switch the thing into its 4 wheel drive mode and see if i can at least come to a stop. We manage that and jump out of the car to see if these people are ok. 3 cars flipped and 2 on the side of the road smashed. When my sister jumped out of the back she fell flat on her back the road was an ice rink. It took the state police and ambulance 30 min to get to the accident...

Right before the area in which the accident occured there was a notch which i guess can change weather conditions in a hurry. nobody was seriously hurt. Lets just say i didn't get to go skiing , but im just happy that no one got hurt. Just amazing that these people didn't get hurt.

have you guys ever been involved in something like that. share it!

Wow... Fortunately no, but I have seen some other vehicle in accidents caused by rain and some by snow, mostly rear wheel drive ones...

well cars can flip over contrary to popular belief

basically you gotta be going sideways at speed, then your outer tires need to dig into something soft, once that happens the momentum of the car will have the tires dig in even more, and if you are going fast enough that force will be enough to flip the car
