When we’re not complaining about the snow, we have a lot of fun with it. Sometimes we just take off our clothes and roll around in the stuff. Sometimes we show off our impressive drifting skills. Other times, we incur the disapproval of law enforcement by strapping on skis so that a friend with a car can tow us down the street at high speeds.

As fun as it sounds, we wouldn’t recommend that last pastime—unless you enjoy traffic school. Let this man’s experience be a cautionary tale.

Yeah, maybe just move to a town with hills or something.
