ONE OF THE FUN PARTS OF WINTER IS GETTING YOUR CAR STUCK.  OF COURSE THERE ARE TIMES WHEN YOUR WHEELS SPIN, BUT YOU'RE NOT REALLY STUCK. WHEN YOU LIVE IN THE COUNTRY, GETTING STUCK MEANS DRIVING FAST ENOUGH TO GET THROUGH A BIG DRIFT AND ENDING UP NOT GETTING THROUGH, AND YOUR CAR IS HUNG UP IN THE DRIFT.  SHOVELING THE SNOW OUT FROM UNDER THE CAR IS THE ONLY WAY TO MOVE THE CAR AND CONTINUE DOING THIS UNTIL YOU ARE THROUGH THE DRIFT.  ITS NO FUN.  IF YOU HAVE A CELL PHONE, CALL A WRECKER. THEY CAN HOOK UP TO YOUR CAR AND DRAG YOU THROUGH THE DRIFT.  WORST CASE SCENARIO--LEAVE THE CAR UNTIL THE SNOW THAWS.  NOT ADVISABLE, BECAUSE THE SNOW PLOW WILL DEMOLISH IT.  

WHEN YOU LIVE IN AN URBAN AREA, YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF THE DRIFTED ROADS IN THE COUNTRY SO ITS BEST NOT TO TRAVEL FAR WHEN THE SNOW IS DRIFTING.  TO PROTECT YOURSELF. CARRY SOME KITTY LITTER OR SAND IN THE TRUNK TO TAKE CARE OF THE LITTLE ANNOYING SPINNING WHEELS TYPE OF GETTING STUCK.  WHEN GOOD SENSE DICTATES, STAY HOME.  

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN REALLY STUCK?
