Typically, if the ice conditions are at all iffy, you drive with half your ass hanging out the open door so that you can jump off when this happens, rather than risk being taken to the bottom of the lake, trapped inside your vehicle.

Not true… I’ve done it many times and still here to tell about it. Over the years, I’ve only lost 6 trucks, 14 snow mobiles and a lawnmower. j/k

Yoopers are usually much wiser than that about pushing the ice early or late in the season. Maybe they’re new to those parts?
