i hate ice driving. seems like the stupidity of foolish drivers is amplified in bad weather. ive been driving between 5- 20 mph. even at that speed, slowing, and braking early ive still slid past my intended place to stop by about six feet. but along comes the minivans, sedans, teslas, and fluffy pimped trucks tailgating and blasting by at 40 - 50. ? I sorta wish they would spin all out of control and have a

experience so they can learn a lesson. I dont want them getting hurt. just get freaked out enough to realize they need to slow down.

I'm with you on that. Better to be too slow than too fast on ice. It's hard not to feel pressured by others but if they wanted to get someplace earlier, maybe they should have left earlier.

When Kate was in the midst of her chemotherapy, there were to many mornings going and too many evenings coming back of white knuckle driving in the winter on the highway. I hated being in a hurry - I'm sure I was safe but I would have liked to take a little more time. Thankfully she's been in remission for two years and all looks sunny (no pun intended).

Winter driving can be fun when there's no traffic out, but it's nerve racking when others are out, just like you wrote.

That stupid groundhog! I'm gonna go broke between him seeing his shadow and this darn Inflation. :curse::facepalm:
Too bad he doesn't lay eggs, he'd have some value then!

Probably 6 more weeks because the gas stoves have all been taken.

I hope you're happy now, Greta! =p
