We Crashed our Chevy Volt on Christmas Eve - Did we survive?
6,996*UPDATE* The body shop called and said the frame is tweaked
and there was a ton of damage so the car is TOTALED. We're just waiting to hear back on what happens next then we will look for a cheap, used, safe car to replace it for my wife and son to drive. Something that is AWD. Would love to get a Tesla Model 3 but it's not in the cards right now, but one day I hope that we both drive Tesla's.
Driving home from a party on Christmas Eve 2017 we lost traction going down a very steep snow covered hill because it concealed a patch of ice and we went on the roller coaster ride of a lifetime. I had my wife and my 7 year old son Xander in the car with me & I've never felt so helpless. Please comment below on your similar experiences and let me know how long it's going to take for me to not be nervous behind the wheel again.

Questions and Answers...
Q) Why were you driving 50mph in those conditions?
A) I wasn’t, we were going 3mph and once we started sliding we picked up speed from gravity down a steep hill.
