    A truck driver tried to turn around after getting stuck on Interstate 70 and this was the result. The incident took place on Jan 31st. The clip was filmed and sent to us by driver Thomas Stoddard.

    Before I watched the video I thought he was going to turn into a crossover or u turn thing that the state police use....

    Which would be bad . But to go 4 wheeling with the ground not frozen over that swale is insane .

    Looks like he got owned by ATC. Need to turn off ATC if you want to keep the power in mud or it will just de-rate the motor down to nothing to keep the wheels from spinning.
