...does having to drive off the curb and having (I think) just the mud guard scrape a snow mound count as crashing?
Look, I was corraled by a bunch of Subarus everywhere, including one Outback that parked perpendicular ON the driveway ramp after I showed up, leaving maybe 2/3 my car's width available to try to exit with. Lawn was clear, so I did a 180 there to face out and I squeezed out of the driveway with as much of my car on asphalt as possible to minimize the drop.
