Ok drivers

[Bufford]

It’s snowing, blowing and slippery so it’s time to make those un-necessary trips, drive too fast, tailgate and slam on the breaks ten feet before the red light!!!!!!

[kuietgrl (got lost)]

[Soundy's Beard]

i have snow tires so i can go faster than most and if i follow too closely i can stop no problem.

Chances are the people behind you don't have snow tires so you may want to consider slowing down anyway. Snow tires don't work on black ice, either.

[cutie22]

This is only my second winter driving and I slow down with lots of time for the light, if I see it turn yellow or the little man disappears to the hand I start slowing down.

Are you dissing my snow tires...trust me black ice is scared of these puppies. I can drive like a maniac and these chuck norris tires will prevent everything

[TPK]

people that drive like maniacs cause most of the problems!!

[Soundy's Beard]

*** Correction people who drive like maniacs without snow tires CAUSE accidents.

Someone just tried to pass a plow and ended up in the ditch for a minute but had a 4x4 and took off in short order.
I would imagine the plow driver got his license number.
The maniacs are still alive and well!

Passed an accident at the corner or 2nd line and GNR about 15 minutes ago. A 4 door chevy slammed into the back of a dump truck at the stop light.
How do you miss a stopped dump truck I don't know, but the driver did a real good job of it. lol

I'd say female, around 55 or 60, probably an accountant who got her degree after 6 years of schooling. Just a guess. </div></div>

Clearly you are not a people person. im 61

If you get in an accident they beat the other guy up untill he admits to being at fault or kills them so there are no witnesses

(got a set myself)

[1337]

If weather related accidents are weather related, why isn't everyone getting them?

Even "weather related" accidents is due to neglegence and bad driving.

Being neglegent by not getting proper snow tires or want not, and bad driving, not slowing down further, staying far enough behind people now.

There are still tail gaters, they stay within 9 feet of your bumper, you stop they slam into you, it gets written off as weather related because he/she slipped.

[J*B]

They hand out many "following to close" citations for that reason, not too many get off scot free, the insurance companies want somebody at fault!

[kodak57]

oh and another thing......we have to have more room when pulling out from side streets with stop signs onto busier streets,unless you front tires pull and your back tires push its going to take longer to get onto the street and then up to a responsible speed.

</div></div>Because not everyone drives during bad weather

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: T-pot</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Even "weather related" accidents is due to neglegence and bad driving. </div></div>

You hit ice on the roadway while stopping, whether you're going 150 km/h or 1.5 km/h, you're not stopping.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: T-pot</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Being neglegent by not getting proper snow tires
</div></div>Then why are all seasons legal?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: T-pot</div><div class="ubbcode-body">and bad driving, not slowing down further, staying far enough behind people now.
</div></div>Happens in good weather too when the roads are bone dry and bare.

I was driving down the side street behind Cross Country yesterday and was BARELY moving because it was so icy. I got to Bruce St, tried to stop and was sliding soooo slowly onto Bruce lol It was a slow motion heart attack because the cars coming down Bruce were going pretty damn fast and if they would have clipped me, I would have went flying!

I stopped, though. And the guy behind me almost rear ended me because he was right up my butt down the whole street.

NOT fair at all, in P-pots world there are no exceptions, no grey areas only black and white.
