Re: H1 + Street tires = Rollover
Okay, here is the story...
While driving on new years eve 2004 near Pagosa Springs, Colorado. I was on that snowpacked iced-over road, came around the turn to see a snowplow in the middle of the road coming at me. I avoided the plow and slid sideways off the road. The bank on the side of the road was 42deg but I had enough momentum that when I hit a tree at the bottom the Hummer went on its lid.
After we got it rubber-side down again the police made us move it away from the bend in the road, as not to cause another accident. So the Hummer was towed into town where I changed the fluids and taped up the broken passanger window which was hit by the mirror.
The only damage was a slight dent in the roof, crushed roof rack, passanger mirror and passanger window. 6 of the 8 lights on the front still worked. No one was hurt, although I did get a ticket for wreckless driving.
