Oh, it's been a while since I last uploaded a video here.
Recently we had a pretty crazy snowstorm that wreaked havoc here in Estonia. I went on to take a trip to the island Saaremaa with my girlfriend but we timed it too bad that we had to drive back during a snowstorm and it wasn't the easiest ride. I decided to compose a short video of this event.
This video will show you the conditions we had on the road and just outside. The first and second clip just shows the amazing winter weather we had when driving there to Saaremaa.
When driving back, the conditions were so bad that at times I literally saw nothing on the road. Then there are walls of snow that make the car slide at times. Strong wind and heavy snowfall are a recipe for disaster everywhere on the road and one should really consider not to go driving. We didn't have a choice, unfortunately, had to be back home this evening.
In this video, you also see how I slide into a pile of snow on a roundabout due to extremely slippery black ice. Fortunately, the snow was soft there. You also see a car wreck, two cars had made a head-on collision somehow.
For this video, I used my phone, car dash cam and my mirrorless camera at the end of the video when I arrived back to take some clips of the conditions. Don't mind the music and rumbling bass in das cam videos, It fails to record bass well. I decided not to start replacing the audio.
Enjoy watching the severe weather and me struggling to drive in this 7min video!

I love the beauty of winter, but it's too dangerous for driving. That was terrible collision and freezing. Glad you two made it safely.
Driving is extremely dangerous yes. Though I love the stormy winter weather otherwise 😋.
Wow that was dangerous man!!
Yeah, but unavoidable.
It has been unavoidable for me to watch the video until the end after reading the story. Here in my country I don't know the snow and it has always been something of great illusion for me, but I understand that it can cause many problems in the daily life as in your case... How brave of you to drive on roads with such a complicated climate. I loved the post, good content! 👍
Glad you like the video. Lots of snow for sure creates many problems here but its beautiful to look at. Especially when sun is out then its like a wonderland.
eriti julgelt lased, mõned sõidavad 90 alas 50nega sellise ilmaga
Eks vahepeal saigi 50ga lastud kui eriti räige oli. Kui võimalik siis andsin juurde, muidu jääkski sõitma seda vahe 😀
