Oh My Gawd It's Snowing!

[johngraves2]

Its all about skill when driving in snow. And most people who live in Colorado have none. I can be in my truck in two wheel drive and see people clearly in four wheel drive spinning out and all over the road. I hardly use four wheel drive.

And there is such a thing as going too slow. If people go too slow they piss others off then those people try and pass them and go to fast and then mess up. People need to know what the appropriate speed is, not to fast and not to slow. I think this causes more accidents than people realize, going to slow and making others mad.

Practically nothing here in the Springs. A little dusting in some ares and that's about it. Most of the bases called for a delayed start last night for no reason. Argh!

Maybe 3/4 of an inch in Aurora this morning. I'm off today, so I drove my wife to work. 5 mile commute took 35 minutes due to idiots. Real snow is going to suck.

Snowing pretty hard here in Littleton... Not sure.. 3-4 maybe? I have a 4 wheel drive truck but being from Michigan I also know my limits... And the people that cause the most accidents are the slow drivers and the ones that panic and hit their brakes! You don't slam on your breaks with snow... Morons I tell ya... Saw zero accidents from i25 and arapahoe to 470 and Kipling where the last snow I saw 2.... So there was an improvement this morning

Non stop all morning. All three lanes held up with three, shoulder to shoulder, 15mph rollers with traffic lined up for miles. Hello? If you aren't comfortable above a crawl because your car sucks or your skills suck, keep it in the right lane! I invested in a 4x4 outfitted for the snow and have spent a lifetime practicing driving in the snow. I will not be driving the speed limit, but I can do better than a turtle. AND... if traffic is backed up behind me, I MOVE OVER!!

Yep, that happened this morning on I-70 EB from Evergreen to Lakewood. Only one well plowed lane (left) and then people traveling using up both the slow lanes, so really only two usable lanes. But the problem with the Suburban lady this morning was on SH-73 and 74 where it's only one lane each direction... She couldn't figure out that there was a line of at least 20 cars behind her that were forced to do her absolutely insane slow speed. There's a difference between going a safe speed, and being chickenshit.

Took me an hour to drive from Iliff and 225 to Lincoln and dransfeldt, it was all the idiots trying to exit from the left lane on Parker to arapahoe, but that's everyday so who am I kidding
