Minnesotans Clear Away after Snowstorm, Expect Bitter Cold

[MineralMan]

10. I'm also not driving anywhere today.

When roads are icy, I start stopping before I start. Or, at least, that's what I tell people. I also drive very slowly and carefully, much to the annoyance of people who thing speed limit signs designate the minimum speed you must drive, regardless of road conditions.

A lot of drivers pay zero attention to icy winter conditions. That's why there are so many people "in the ditch" every day during rush hour. Thank goodness I work at home and don't have a commute. I worry about all the other drivers. They're the real hazard.
