    Was pulling through a lot to park and wait for the weather to pass in central Iowa. Went to pull in to a parking spot at about 2 mph. The lot kind of dips down back here. Nothing I could do but watch it happen from behind the wheel.

    Good news is I didn't hurt the baracade. This is the first auto accident I have ever been involved in my lifetime of 45 years.

    Can totally see where you slid. That does suck bad. Hopefully it's a quick repair and your dignity isn't too hurt.

    Best wishes driver.

    Gosh darn, driver. You knocked your fender mirrors off too.
    Good you can still drive the truck. Doesn't take much with the ice.
    Good luck.

    Waiting on a wrecker. Solid ice back here. Truck won't move except farther in the hole. I think I can cut the bumper off and put a new tire on. I'll fit right in back in Chicago!

    Don't worry, that's the passenger side. Nobody sees that side anyway.
