At some point before getting buried, don't you have someone come get you or you flag down another motorist? He stayed in there...

Real story - got drunk, went off the road, fell asleep and woke up to realize he'd been plowed in.

I mean come on - the house is 10 feet away. If he went off the road and was sober he'd have gotten right out.

Plus, who is out in a blizzard at midnight with no heater?

yeah so why was he out at midnight in a car with no heater? And if the plow driver saw him go off the road I doubt he would have plowed him in, arses though they may be - the car had to have been there awhile before the plow came by.

Don't doubt for one second the reason the trooper was in the hospital with him! Waitin' on bloodwork.

Can you read English? The cars heater became disabled when the car got plowed/snowed in. And people dont go out at midnight? Is it possible he was checking in on his parents, or coming home from work? Not sure why you just assume he was drunk? And I've seen many ahole plow drivers think its funny plowing someone in.

When they see the car go off the road? Ok ... maybe. I mean how long do you sit in a car that's gone off the road, can't tell 911 where you are (especially if coming back from your parents - or any other place you're familiar with...again at midnight, sorry that's just dumb ...most people would check on their parents at like ...6-7 p.m. ..... or when it hasn't started snowing 5 inches an hour....but you're right I deal with the general public every day and most people are pretty dumb). I mean this clearly happend on a residential street but he didn't know where he was? Lives in the snow belt but doesn't have emergency supplies in the car?? I'm sticking with my story. Sorry it offends you so much.

Got 3’ of the white stuff by me.
Rescued 2 separate stranded motorists on my road with my manly gas guzzling 4X4 V8 powered bro-dozer. By coincidence. Just driving along I was flagged down twice within a few miles. Both parties were not from the area. I’m trying to make sure I go to heaven when I die so hopefully these good deeds will count.
