After getting into the car he had parked in the driveway, he put the vehicle in reverse and got stuck in the snow. This is where trouble started for the young man. He tried driving the car out of the snow but all to no avail. Then he got out of the car to clear the snow with his hands but the car still wouldn't move.

Frustrated and confused as to what next to do, the man tried pushing the car but couldn't move it. The couple could be heard in the background as they record the event. The husband tells his wife to call the cops.
