It's disconcerting for me to know that I feel safer driving in three feet of snow in a sports car back in New England than when driving in three inches of snow in a big ol' family sedan down in the D.C. metro area. People here are simply frightening with their inability to drive in severe weather. Granted, Sunday and Monday were challengingly slippery, but the road conditions weren't actually that bad; it was the drivers themselves that caused some of my hair to go grey. I talked to someone who saw cars doing (unintentional, I hope) donuts on the Beltway!
The folks here aren't very good at cleaning off their cars, either, nor do they recognize the danger to others in not doing so. In the past two days, while driving on the highway, I've had large chunks of ice blow off car roofs and hit me no less than four times. Hurtling objects on collision course with my car = Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!
