[Prudence]

I'm actually pretty good in snow and ice, the problem is everyone else. People on this side whip around in their SUVs. There seems to be this group hallucination that 4 wheel drive makes them impervious to all weather influences and that their stopping distance never varies. It is such a flippin' pain in the arse. It's frustrating that *I* can't drive in snow - not because I'm not sufficiently skilled, but because I'm unwilling to go out there with the yahoos who won't slow the hell down and pay attention. *froths*

I think it's stopped raining for the moment.
