  1. we did that growing up if there was a good snow and wanted something a little different than hookybobbing. couldn’t do it too much as it was hard to get the right conditions (too much salt on the roads).

  2. We used to do this when I was a kid, using our sleds hooked onto the back bumper of passing cars. Of course, the drivers did not realize that they had hitchhikers.

  3. Actually, I’m in Hampton, Virginia.
    We had a snow deluge this weekend and I saw this a couple times on my street next to the Chesapeake Bay.

  4. we called this “skeeching” in upstate new york as kids. hitch a ride without the driving knowing. I think they even had a special fine for it if you got caught.
