I hate this weather, people just don't know how to drive in this weather. I don't underdstand how people can spin out on a "city street" with sand and salt already applied?

Esp. those damed SUV drivers they **** me off the most.

Too cocky with the 4x4.. but oh well.. some people are bad at driving during these kind of weather. They need to take the winter driving course at AMA.

Yeah I strongly believe it should be mandatory for people to take that course, I will only benefit them. Same with having winter tires, those will only benefit the handling and braking of the car.

i don't get it either. people i know keep saying drive safe the roads are really bad. when i go out they're fine. obviously i'm not gonna slam on my brakes last second or ride up someones ***. the roads are fine when using the proper caution and i still only take maybe 5 or 10 mins extra to get to work then i do in the summer. everyone is constantly slamming on their brakes or riding up my ***. i'm suprised my bumper is still in tact. sorry to vent guys but most people I encounter on the road should not have a ****ing licence. good thing i've haven't had another 7thgen **** me off yet
