A snowstorm on the morning of Jan 16th 2007 left about 3-4 inches of snow and ice on the ground in Portland, Oregon. This is what happens to people with too much confidence in their 4WD and zero experience driving on icy snow.Video was taken around SW Salmon and 20th Avenue, which is pretty steep (to be fair).

I agree. It's rare for Portland to get these kinds of snow storms. Most people that live in Portland equip their car to handle heavy rain. (Our typical weather) most of the cars that are able to handle snow / ice are owned by businesses. i.e. taxi cabs, tri-met. Very few people own tire chains or something to help with the loss of traction. I've been living in Portland my entire life and i've only seen one snow storm like this. But, that was 5+ years ago.

just FYI, i havent "recently" moved to oregon. i live on the other side of the mountain where we actually get snow.what im trying to say is the reason that there are scenes like this in poortland when it does snow is because they dont know how to deal with it. they havent had to deal with it much, and the 1 or 2 times it happens. stuff like this happens. yet over here in sisters, we get along just fine. why? because we have to deal with it. so people either deal, or get out.
