The digging part not so much. A video of how I became stuck could have made the news.

OK, here it is. I was driving on a rural road that was half plowed, half not at about 30-35 MPH. It was a straight patch of road going downhill. The wheels fell into a tire track while the underside of the car simultaneously rode up on top of a deeper pocket awkwardly, and the back of the car snapped around.

Fortunately for me, it went around so quickly that the car kept going straight while it was spinning, so it stayed on the road instead of going into the ditch. Had it actually gone off the road, I never would have been able to shovel it out.

Yeah. In 11 winters of driving on snow, I've never had anything like that happen to me before...I was going straight and it just turned around with no warning. The snow was very wet, so it just kinda packed down to a dense slush under the tires instead of something that normally you can get more grip on.
