You've gotta admit it's funny, an all day storm yields 3-4 inches? c'mon that's not a storm lol


Actually snow removal is only part of the problem. The real problem is that people don't know how to drive in the snow. Our area had over 300 reported accidents in like a 5 hours.

People don't know how to drive in it regardless of where they are, believe me. People think they know around here, but they don't.

In the summer you guys will be telling me that a 90 degree day isn't hot, so what comes around goes around.

MD is definitely warmer on average, about 5 degrees. Plus the humidity is worse down your way.

not to bust on anybody that drives them, but i always see the ricer cars and suv's that are either in the ditch, or involved in the accidents around here. Maybe too much speed??

Us good ole boys in the pickup trucks, most of them time escape unscathed. But keep in mind even in 4X4, i only go about 20 to 25 mph when its snowing, and even slower when it's like 6 inches or so, so i guess speed has alot to do with it.

Speed is always a factor.

4 wheel drive and all wheel drive help you get going, but they don't help you stop and steer any better.

Also, ABS makes your stops longer. Give yourself plenty of room to stop. Chances are, you won't stop nearly as quickly as you believe you will.

The people you see in the ditch are the ones who don't understand this. Well, they may now.

Actually you can use power to the wheels to help you steer better but most people panic and hit the brakes.
