My first time =) — logbook Toyota Carina ED 1997
In general, my office is located on a "wonderful street" that has never been cleared of snow, and never will be, and now it is a narrow road with a very severe rut and a bunch of parked cars along. Therefore, I constantly have to use cunning maneuvers to disperse from the oncoming lane, and just the other day, during just such a passing maneuver, I abruptly fell through the wheel somewhere. After 5 seconds of not understanding what happened, I went out and found my right wheel in the hatch (which I didn’t see by myself, thanks to the snow!). I’ve never encountered anything like this, so I just stood there, took a picture, sat back down and, refusing help in the form of pulling out the rope from the guys from the nine, absolutely calmly drove back, which surprised them insanely =)
PS: nothing in the suspension or appearance was damaged, apparently due to the fact that the car fell on loose snow. The hatch was soon closed. In general, everything is fine.
Well, I would have left in any case myself, but the snow, of course, helped a lot to avoid damage.
Sometimes it's good that the snow was not removed (at least in your case). Judging by the photo, it was this thick layer that helped you do without the help of the boys).
I wish your first time was the only one)
I had the same situation, only in the summer and on Nexia. :) Having failed, I was frightened that all the pipets and reflexes immediately prompted to press on the gas, as a result, either by the inertia of the car, or by some other force, I, in fact, jumped out of there on one drive wheel. And yes, there was not a hatch, but a hole in the asphalt (maybe I saw about 104 schools in my yard) :) Then I got off with a slight fright (a slight fright is a plastic bumper scratched from below and a torn plastic protection)
Of course good! I only managed to bury the car once, and even then, stupidly, there was SO much snow that the wheels were not visible and the door did not want to open) And besides, ED is quite high, especially in comparison with other Japanese.
I agree with you 100%... plus he is a taxi driver... he is essentially responsible for people's lives.
and another funny thing happened to me ... in December the city was suddenly covered with snow ... it’s warm and it’s snowing, snowplows can’t cope with the elements ... and so in the morning I’m driving along the main road, driving 60 ahead, the taxi driver bang turns the steering wheel sharply to the left, to the right I ride in three lanes movement, I’m driving along the way, he cuts bang, I barely barely dodge, I go out to the opposite direction, he’s with me, I gas the steering wheel to the left and drags him with me, miraculously we don’t catch each other and for two meters we rolled bang, he hit him in a snowdrift and into the curb, and I miraculously stayed at a turn of 15 cm from it ... as a result, I look at that pretzel, the rear tires are bald, so it was dragging it ... so what is it all. if it wasn’t for the snowdrift, it would have “hit†cruelly, bumper, wheel fender,the hood of the rack and all that ... and he was lucky that the snowdrift softened the blow and he just stumbled into the curb with the wheel. Everywhere has its pluses, as it were ... but if the snow was cleared, you would see the hatch, and there would be no rut, but in my case , if that pretzel had put winter tires around, then this incident would not have happened, and if the snow had been cleaned at the time, then there would have been no rut.
