Today, I thought it would be a good idea to take a short cut driving through the snow. I skidded to avoid an oncoming car and ended up in someone's garden, inches from their brand new extension. The house belonged to a police officer. FML

Just because women are better at owning their shit does not suddenly make men better drivers. We rarely get snow in Vancouver so when we got a good dump of it last week things were horrible. Yet what did we see? People driving on snow and black ice as if it was the middle of summer time. Men and women get into the same number of accidents but men are more likely to hit and run while women are more likely to report even mild fender benders that do not need reporting. In this case the OP deserves it for taking a short cut. When the weather is bad - slow the **** down and stay on roads you are familiar with.

I hate to add to the mindless sexism that consumes FML, but seriously....it seems like every post that involves shitty driving involves a female. just an observation ladies.

idiots like u shouldn't drive in the snow. but btw there's these things called chains u wrap around ur tires that everyone in my neighborhood has for winter.

OP obviously isn't from your neighbourhood then. Chain wrapped tyres aren't really a common sight here in the United Kingdom.

I'm guessing your bitch is that it was a cop's house? You were driving in the snow and lost control. Leave the story at that, and save yourself from further incrimination.

Erm. YDI. next time don't drive into oncoming traffic maybe?

I can't help but notice you are a female... mystery solved.

Being a misogynist doesn't make you funny, just so you know.

You: "Sir, it appears that you have a vehicle parked on your lawn... This practice is against city ordinance. I'm just gonna go ahead and give you a warning this time and move the car for you, but don't let me see this happen again." Citation averted.

ydi for not getting the memo that you have to drive slower an slot more careful in the snow and also invest in some snow tires .... if you think o don't know anything trust me when it comes to driving in snow I know I'm Canadian and we have over a foot of snow right now

What difference does it make that the house you hit was owned by an officer?

lol, i actually didnt find that funny.
