Today, I found my company car wrecked in a ditch. Apparently, leaving it parked on an icy hill all night was a bad idea. I have to pick up my manager from the airport. FML

At least the car didn't hit anyone on the way down

an act of god is what insurance companies refer to when it's natures fault, like a tree branch falling on your car, deer running into your car, etc.

I guess emergency brake wouldn't work in that situation, maybe chains or bricks behind the tires next time.

Seriously? didn't you ever learn about turning the wheels so that it runs into the curb?

You think that would work on a sheet of ice?

#28 If everything is icy and the wheels are locked up from the brakes, the car will slide straight down regardless of which direction the wheels are pointing.

At least it didn't hit any other cars in the process of sliding down the hill (or I'd assume that would deserve mention here). Then again, that's probably only because everyone else was smart enough to park elsewhere,

Apparently, having you as the owner was also a mistake. Why the hell would you park your car on an ICY SLOPE? Those two words put together just scream trouble.

Twitlight, I think the question is more HOW would you park a car on an icy slope? Surely it'd start sliding down as soon as you slow down/stop as opposed to waiting all night to start going down the hill? And OP...I'm hoping for your sake that it wasn't icy when you parked the car, otherwise you're a total idiot and should go learn the meaning of common sense. YDI

hurry up and rent a car... and think about how to remedy your stupidity... before another innocent automobile falls victim to your evil. >;[

Time to pull yourself up by your bootstraps, buy a wheelbarrow, and start walking to the airport.

No lickmyjock, in these icy conditions a wheelbarrow is too much like the luge. We've already lost one too many at that sport :(

ONE too many? People have died on the luge before that one accident. Do a little reading.

Wow! Parking a car on a icy slope is a perfect idea, your car won't even crash into a ditch. Think next time buddie.
