when it comes to icey, snowy weather - it doesn't matter if you're in a state that has it all the time during winter cause ppl still drive like crazy, I remember when I started driving, took me a bit to catch on
-- but still that's no excuse for ppl that have been driving forever, then they wonder how they end up in the ditch or why they had an accident...
my mind switches gears while driving in winter, and i am always on the defense cause I never know how other ppl are driving... i try not to go anywhere if I can help it when the roads are bad, but somehow I manage to make it to work
