Dang

Losing control of your car in the snow and sliding into a wooden fence usually isn't that big of a deal, except when the fence conceals an immediate plunge over a retaining wall. I passed by earlier on the upper-level street, shortly after the accident, and a guy who seemed like the owner of the car was joking around with the police, so I don't think anyone was seriously injured. And the house beside the fence wasn't damaged either.
