I spun out a few times trying to get home on rural two lane highways during snow storms but my favorites were when I was working for the family

trucking company.
My job was to wash the trucks on the weekends. I would grab the tractors, pull them into the bay, wash, and return them to the yard. The one side of the yard had a hill the local units would be parked on which lead to a little dropoff. I didn't notice the black ice behind one of the trucks and slid down the hill until the rear wheels were hanging off the dropoff movie style. I hopped out and had to call one of the drivers that lived by the terminal to come pull it back off the ledge.
There was also a really small wheelbase tractor that was *perfect* for doing doughnuts in the snow.
