It's winter. This means cold, snow and ice. Ice on the roads in particular. This also means it's time to bring a certain fact to the attention of the masses of people who seem to have completely missed it. Yes, yes...your sweet four-wheel drive vehicle is rockin'. It's fabulous. Great to get through the snow. Yep. But get this: Four-wheel drive is not, I repeat NOT four-wheel STOP. Hello...your super slick SUV doesn't do jack squat for you on black ice.
Think, people. Let's see...night before there was sleet on roads that were warm from the 50+ degree weather. In hours, the temperature plummets into the single digits. What does an intelligent person surmise from this situation? ICE on the roads.
SO, Mr. Cool Stuff in your Denali...do me a favor and get the BLEEP off my bumper! I'm terribly sorry you're in a rush, but it's not your right to make the fact that you didn't leave early my problem. Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency for me, so no. I'm not going to go any faster. I'm in the right lane. PASS me if you must but stay the H.E. Double Hockysticks off my rear.
Believe me, wherever you are headed is not nearly as important as us all getting where we're going SAFELY, so slow down, leave some room in front of you and for goodness sake hang up the dang phone.
Rant over. Thank you for reading.
