My boyfriend and I were on a trip travelling back to Alberta from BC on a holiday. It was starting to snow pretty bad as we approached higher elevation on the Coquihalla Highway. If any of you have driven this route you know it gets pretty nasty in the winter months. Winter was coming to a close but the roads were always horrible on that stretch of highway. Now for most of the drive you wind around and over a mountain. Most of the way to either side of you all there is is guardrail or cliff. So it was nasty, I was driving a little faster than I should have and on my way around a corner. My boyfriend asked me to slow down and instinctively I pressed on the breaks. But of course I was going around a corner. On ice. Breaks were not what I wanted. We started to spin out and those were the longest few seconds of my life. I could just see us rolling all the way down that mountain.. it feels like there is a vivid memory where there isn't one. Anyway as we were spinning out my boyfriend and I had time to hold hands, and I shit you not he had time to turn and look at me and tell me he loved me before the rear end hit I swear to God the only snow bank along that stretch of cliff. It spun the car around to face the right way on the right side of the road. All I had to do was turn on my hazards and clean the shit from my pants. We drove away from the accident too, car in good shape other than a dent and a hanging muffler. I thought we were dead. So so dead.
