Would you believe about one out of six or seven cars rattled down the
street with chains! Some of those didn't think about what that extra eight
inches or so of chain was going to do to the fenders, if they didn't tie
it down.
Hee hee!
I remember seeing this on a road trip to the Gulf of Mexico back in the
'80s. The south was getting hit with a rare ice storm, and the locals had
NO idea what to do. (We, of course, kept sailing warily along without
difficulty, as the natives careened gracefully into the ditch...)
We saw one guy with a beautiful Cadillac that had chains on his back wheels
that were installed incorrectly. There were a loose ends about 5 inches
long that were absolutely ripping the **** out of his wheel wells as he
drove, apparently oblivious to what all that racket meant was happening to
his car.
