Today, I was driving on roads that were bad from two days of snow. I spun my car out, and ended up half-way in a ditch. Thinking that I could push my car out of the snow, I got out of my car, landing in waist deep snow. When trying to get back in, I fell neck deep into snow. FML

Today, I got stuck in the snow in the middle of street. As I was just beginning to get myself unstuck, the snow plow came by and buried the front end of my car. FML
Today, my car got stuck in a foot of snow. I tried desperately digging around my wheels to see if it would help. I was finally able to get out 10 minutes later only to realize that I had dropped my phone in the snow while I was digging and had run over it. FML
Today, I was run over by my own car as I tried to push it out of a snowbank. FML
Today, it snowed a lot and my friends and I went outside for a walk. Someone drove by and threw a snowball at me, hitting me square in the face. Surprised, I side-stepped only to end up losing balance and roll down a hill into a ditch full of prickly bushes. FML
Today, I spent nearly half an hour clearing several inches of snow off my car. After almost suffering from hypothermia, I finished. Except the car keys were missing from my pocket, presumably buried under a foot of snow. FML
Today, I jumped into a pile of snow which had built up against a wall. Turns out it wasn't snow but a pile of cement covered by an inch of snow. I now have a 3 inch cut along my leg and a sprained wrist from falling. FML
Today, as a finisher to a date with my girlfriend we decided to park behind the school and mess around. As we were pulling into a dark shaded spot, she drove straight into a snow bank. We spent the rest of our time together trying to dig the car out. FML
Today, as I was walking home, I felt my feet slip out from under me and I face-planted in the slushy, dirty, melting snow. I rolled over, completely soaked, and attempted to get up, thinking no one saw me. A mail-man then passed me without offering to help, and said, "I've seen worse." FML
Today, I lost control of my car on a patch of ice and slid off the road, messing up my car. I was working on a news story about bad road conditions. FML
Today, I was driving slightly off road for work to clean a well. I didn't want to get my boots muddy by walking the last 20 ft through mud, so I tried to drive through. I spent the next four hours on hands and knees digging my way out. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

If you don't live where it snows, roads being bad after two days of bad weather will make no sense to you. Snow plows can only do so much. The roads are still left with a bit of ice and snow on them and it doesn't melt until it stops snowing and the sun comes out. Even with salt and sand down, roads can be trecherous. I live in CT where we have efficient plow crews, and I am still very cautious when driving for a few days after a blizzard. FYL OP. But the mental image is kind of funny :-)

It doesn't make sense at all. How the hell are you driving on snow that's neck deep? Do you drive a monster truck?

I think that they stretched that one a lot too. Unless they left out the part where they slipped, fell over, and they were neck deep because they were laid out flat on their back.

Wow read it again the ditch was that full of snow not the road and we have had enough snow lately it's well over 6 feet drifts and piles in some places

@ 76 Those must be some deep-ass ditches to fall into 6 feet of snow. That or they basically walked into a wall of 4 feet of snow and fell 2 feet.

There can be a lot of snow after two days of snowing, if the snowing was continuous and quite heavy then yes it is possible.

So was it the powdery snow, or the near-ice stuff? Either way, sorry for your luck.

I'm Iowan I can agree for neck deep snow(well like 4 feet deep), my neighbor had a snow drift nearly toughing his roof. Granted the snow isn't deep everywhere but areas were it can get caught(like a ditch) it will build up last time I was there I was walking in waist high snow and I'm 6 feet tall. But YDI for not driving safely in the back roads, you should know they're always the worse.

YDI for being one of the idiots on the road that can't drive. If the roads are that bad, you shouldn't have been going that fast.
