theo47says...Shame on you - that's clearly Tony Bennett, not Frank Sinatra.
You kids today, with your rock 'n' roll...;)
siftbotsays...Tags changed from "cars,ice,snow,wrecks,frank sinatra" to "cars, ice, snow, wrecks, tony bennett" by gold star member theo47.
grspecsays...Whoops! sorry and thanks for calling me a kid.
theo47says...I was being a goofball, but you're welcome.
swampgirlsays...One dummy was about to get between two of them.
grspecsays...I know theo47 but when someone calls me a kid and I am so close to 40 I can practically taste it? I savor the moment.
michiesays...'i will not come this way next ti..' LOL
LadyBugsays...insane!!!!
rembarsays...I've heard that a spare tire would make a great bumper booster. Just sayin'.
ILostMyPasswordRagarnoksays...Awesome how that lexus drifted it's way into the crash
archchefsays...WHat a bunch of noobs!
silvercordsays...I love the people getting out of their cars. It's like "oh, I don't want all this steel around me when the collision comes. Let me be unprotected!"
Jeez . . . the lady who was sliding on her butt was priceless. Every time I've seen this I keep thinking "the van's gonna get her this time!"
therealblankmansays...Hmmm... an oldie, but I suppose technically not a dupe due to the fact that it's a smidge longer and has irritating music... http://www.videosift.com/video/First-Snowfall-Driving-Crash-Bang-Boom
thenebsays...There's some basic rules if the roads are like that but nobody every gets to practice them.
The first being that if it's snowing like that it's a good idea not to drive unless it's an emergency or if you know how to stop.
Other things include using your breaks correctly by pumping your breaks and not constantly keeping it pressed down.
grspecsays...The stupidity of the people getting out to the cars is quite amazing. Almost had a few Darwin award candidates.
pho3n1xsays...pumping your brakes in a newer car is a BAD idea. you only need to pump them if you DON'T have ABS (Anti-lock Braking System).

i'm embarrassed that this was in colorado... *sigh*
joedirtsays...This in my opinion is a total dupe. Who cares that the dubbed music is different.
grspecsays...I wish there was a better way to check for dupes. Unless the name matches or its he exact same vid, it is a crap shoot.
Sorry for the dupe.
Deanosays...Would it be useful to have to submit the length of the video? This could then be compared to the submission.
daphnesays...I'm still lobbying for a "dumbass" category.
therealblankmansays...Is this a dupe? *blog
siftbotsays...Sending this video to Sift Talk for discussion (sent by gold star member therealblankman)
dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
I agree that the soundtrack is not enough to set this one apart as a new post, sorry. *discard
siftbotsays...Discarding this post (discard called by gold star member dag)
grspecsays...bah don't be sorry. I still wish there was a better system to check for dupes.
dagsays...Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)
I think the current system works pretty well. I mean really - what else can we do but check tags and titles to look for similar posts? I don't think submit length would be very practical for finding dupes. But, it might make a nice optional field.
grspecsays...I agree and I am not saying there is a better way, it's the nature of the beast with video and anyone being able to take the same piece of video and upload it to various sources. Just saying it would be great "if" there was a better/foolproof way. Who knows maybe someone will figure out a way to come up with some embedded bit that can ident/track videos but will be transparent to the users.
