I wonder how the main busted but I am willing to bet incompetence comes into play


It's wintertime thing up here. Happens now and then.

One broke here in early Jan when it was hovering around zero and we had 6 inches of ice on the street for a few weeks until a warm spell allowed them to scrape it off.

*Wasn't a large main obviously like this one.

The worst part of that video is that their Christmas lights are still up.

You think if you told your boss that your car was frozen to the road, you boss would believe you?

At least they remember to put their wipers up so they don’t freeze to the windshield.
