Georgia snow plow falls into hole

Nay, not so. It's a 'polite' thing. Either you have it or you don't.

I don't, but I fake it real good, 'cause it makes me look...well, polite.

Did something similar in an ambulance, but not as drastic. Same scenario, collapsed a sewer pipe in a parking lot. Just sank to the axle, not swallowed whole like that guy.

Yowch, yeah I'd have said a sewer collapsed there, or an old covered over hole of some sort. We had a bus find an old mine shaft in Norwich back in the late 1980s, quite a famous picture:
