Snow + Ice = 5 BigRig Pileup in Texas!

I had an interesting commute on the way to work today. Snow/Ice mix had been falling for the past hour and the roads were getting a bit tricky.

Things didn't go so well for the semi's that had blown by me just 60 seconds earlier...in fact, I'm just hoping they lived to regret that they weren't being a bit more cautious.

Amazing how people down south can't drive in snow and ice.Up here we get a foot of snow in a storm. Sown south everything shuts down if there is a trace of snow. Up here everyone has to go to work and schools rarely cancel.

Being from Canada, I'm quite experianced at driving in horrible winter conditions. It doesn't matter where you are, the second snow hits the ground people hit the stupid button.

@tksemipro LOL well that must mean they don't have tires or a car then. We don't drive around with chains and studs on our tires. I bet I can drive better in the snow with a two wheel drive vehicle with bald tires then someone down south with four wheel drive. I'm just trying to point out cultural differences between the north and south.

@FiReTHorN84 That's because they don't have the proper equipment down south to deal with snow.

Why is snow=slippery a hard concept for drivers to grasp?

@WNxRadeon It's Texas, dickhead. And "dessert" is what you have after a meal. Texas has deserts, prairies, forests, mountains, lakes and the friggin' ocean. Take a lesson in geography and spelling before you make idiotic comments on the internet.

[WNxRadeon]

isn't taxas all dessert?

It's not just people down south. Idiots up north here when they see snow and ice it means speed up. Ignorant bastards.
