Yeah but I become paranoid in traffic because there are so many clueless douchenozzles out there. Driving on an unoccupied stretch of road in the snow is fun as hell, in traffic it can be terrifying.

Am I the only one that found it funny with the commentary and subtitles?
"Fuck fuck fuck.. *groans* fuck"... Then you see a huge 18 wheeler flying through.. And he puts "yeah.. Time to get out of here..." This guy is not your average joe. You can clearly tell he knows exactly what he is doing. |

Oh OK, that's in North Carolina.... That explains why absolutely everyone seems completely clueless about what the fuck is going on. Lived there for a bit and we had an inch or two of snow once. Instead of the normal school closings on the local news in the morning, they listed entire cities that were completely closed, and the hysteria bordered on that present when a hurricane is rolling through town.
I did venture out for a bit, but the sheer number of people blowing through stop signs/lights because they magically couldn't stop like normal (the looks on their faces were absolutely priceless), combined with everyone on summer tires or in ditches, made me turn back and go home in fear for my life. I think maybe those in the mountains would be somewhat used to snow. I was along the coast though. |

Usually, you won't just lose control of your car like that on a snow covered road. That looked like heavy wet snow making the conditions more slippery with slush compared to a completely snow covered road. It could have also be raining/sleeting before it snowed causing there to be a layer of black ice under the snow. When that happens, it's one of the most dangerous situations to drive in because you may not be initially aware of the ice under the snow.
