Video: Car skates on black ice, passengers jump out

Via BoingBoing, a clip of a car in England slipping around on black ice.

The couple who filmed the video say the couple in the car were warned not to venture out in the poor conditions that day, and describe the incident:

Shocking driving condtions in Paignton on the busiest shopping day of the year. The car is barely moving but the hill makes stopping impossible and both people in the front of the car decide to jump out?????

The couple were warned by neighbours not to venture out that day and they were the only people to attempt to drive on that road. There were numerous pedestrians around who could barely walk on the black ice so a car really stood no chance.
