GL, mD

I don't think it is an X drive model, the front wheels aren't spinning. That makes it an S drive, rwd only.

She was even more of an idiot: trying to drive a rwd vehicle, with summer tires, in snow, from outside the vehicle.

Pretty sharp eye, JCL...something was bugging me about that, as I watched it a couple more times; just didn't make sense that the X just sat there, rear tires spinning, on not much snow or ice.

And, I am not keeping up with all the BMW iterations/nomenclature/designations, these days. :confused:

FYI: The 1er does not come in xDrive form. Vehicles in the UK and Europe are equipped with summer tires (unlike North America). Recipe for disaster in snow.

If she were a blonde, that would explaiin everything.

Fair enuf dumb move. OTOH, where has the milk of human kindness gone that a person would rather videotape someone with their vehicle stuck rather than going out to help. I, for one, would have gone and helped....
