learn how to drive in the snow 101

[EJOUIE]

What scares me is that most of the drivers down here in GA have no idea how to drive in the snow/ice. They think that you go slow and that all there is to it (many don't even know that much) but it is quite hilly... they don't realize that to get up a slippery slope you have to have enough momentum, and nobody leaves space between them and the car in front.

i love driving in the snow, its a blast, my girl took a driving class out on a frozen lake when she lived in WI, after driving with me she goes maybe you should teach that class i took!

anyone who is already nervous about driving in the snow should really just take a bus or taxi, they are nothing but a hazard to rest of us with no hang ups.

i've gone as far as to take ppl to large parking lots, showed them how to hold the car sideways for 100 feet, and bring it back, on purpose. and tell them now go play around, that way when the car slides or jumps out from under you, you'll know how to correct it, because you made the car do it, and saved it while playing.

a few just wanted to go home after my showing them how to do stuff (pvssys) and a few stuck around lol

When I said what I said above, I just meant about being careful... just not being a dick and blowing by doing 70 when it's ice on the ground.
..Also not doing 10mph with the hazards on, that just creates an obstacle.

I agree about driving in the snow, I love to go for a drive in a snow storm, it's relaxing... I just take it easy on the pedal

i totally agree with ya on that note, some ppl are over confident for sure, like morons in suv's they are the worst cars to think you have control of. way to light compared to a any kind of full sized truck.

on another note, ive got well over a million miles under my belt, and I REFUSE to drive a roll off truck in the snow, why? you really need to be on your game there, at 80,000 lbs that truck can and will go where ever the fvck it wants to if the brakes lock up. what would have been a long slow stop on dry pavement now takes 10 times longer, and some jerk off just cut in front of me, its not worth the days pay, and im not up to the task of trying not to kill people.
