I clearly remember a group of my buddies from Elmendorf in a car spinning our wheels at that icey intersection by the mall in 1970. We couldn’t get traction. So a truck behind us backed up and rammed us at low speed to get us going. We all waved thanks to the guy behind us because we didn’t have get out to slip and slide and push. Common courtesy back then ( and probably still is) was the traffic traction bump or nudge.

Eddie - Oh, those were the days. And yes, folks in Anchorage were quick to lend a hand on those ice and snow-covered streets. Thank you for sharing.
