Been long distance driving for 20+ years for work. Driven through hail, hurricanes, tornadoes, ice, sleet, snow. Was about 5 miles from work, defrost on full blast when my windshield suddenly froze over suddenly with the wipers stuck in the middle of the windshield. It happened that quick. Couldn't see out the windshield except for one section in the middle that hadn't froze over and drove the rest of the way to work through this one spot on my windshield I could see through. I have all-weather tires. While the newest vehicle I have the dealership didn't have in All Wheel Drive it is Front Wheel driven with traction control. I still don't like driving at night and in bad weather conditions because of the other driver's. Il

Dude, this happened right in front of me a few years back… I was traveling on a two lane road with another car about 3-4 car lengths ahead of me in the left lane. I saw oncoming traffic headed our way so naturally I slowed down a bit. Sure enough, a large turquoise Astro van started to slide into our side. I immediately slowed down to a stop no problem. For whatever reason, the car in ahead of me in the left lane did not. He tboned the fk out of the sliding van and then continued to floor it up into a parking lot that was up a slight hill and nailed a tree until he finally stopped. Naturally, I pulled over and yelled “are you ok” and got a thumbs up, then immediately pointed and laughed at the dummy. The wreck wouldn’t have been terrible until he decided to launch it into an uphill grass area to a parking lot nailing a tree. I was in awe of the stupidity, like, you already almost came to a complete stop when nailing the van. Wtf was he thinking lol? Talk about failing under pressure.

It is probably a good thing if you own (or know somebody who owns) a snowmobile on days like this. The town called Gävle in Sweden would have been brought to a standstill back in 1998 due to a long-lasting snowstorm if there had not been snowmobiles here and there in private homes. People rushed back and forth on those snowmobiles to bring people, food and medicine around and in this way helped keeping the place alive.

Reality just won't let you do the ideal thing.

Last week's storm was unique in that it started out as heavy rain in many places (mine included), then the temperature dropped very quickly to well below freezing. The wet roads froze, resulting in ice beneath snow, creating dangerous conditions. The best thing to do is to stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary. That was the downfall of many left stranded.

On icy roads and bad conditions 1) slow down 2) keep a 10-second count between you and the car in front of you. 3) drive in the driving lane not in the passing Lane. 4) keep both hands on the steering wheel 5) turn off the radio and any device distractions. 6) if you feel yourself sliding DO NOT put your foot on the brake. Take your feet off of everything and the car will right itself. 7) never assume because you've never been in an accident that it can't occur.

It's simple.. when road conditions are icy STAY OFF OF THEM!! If that isn't an option SLOW DOWN. Never hit your brakes unless it's ABSOLUTELY necessary. Make sure to leave yourself plenty of room. When approaching bridges let off the accelerator. Never use cruise control. Learn the proper technique for counter steering. It's also a good idea to make sure you have proper tires with good tread installed before winter time rolls in.

Every situation is different but 1 slow way down, Which nobody does.2 sometimes if you can put it in neutral and don't hit the breaks just lightly tap on them. 3 always carry dry sand in a plastic bottle, you can put it down for traction. 4 put 200 pounds or so in the very back of your truck secured for weight.4 sometimes it's better to take off very slow so you don't spin your tires.5 better yet if it is bad out just stay home your life or someone else's is not worth losing.

I live in the Jackson Metro area and recognize several places in this video. In the first clip, that area of I-55 at Terry always get people. There's two bridges spaced about a quarter of a mile apart. Most of the time people get across the first bridge and, before they're able to regain full control, lose it on the second bridge. Other times, like the car in the video did, they just lose it on the first bridge and wipe out between the two.

One of THE biggest issues is requiring people to go to work in these conditions. I worked at a distribution center for ten years and the only day I missed was after an over night blizzard that rendered the roads impassable. I called out. But the carnage of vehicles was apparent. You work at these jobs distributing clothes or manufacturing cars and the cities you work in care more about the economy than human life. Officials would rather people crash their cars than dare disrupt the economy by giving people a pass and just declaring an emergency that excuses individuals from work. I’m the opposite of woke. But we need to recognize that most of the people driving in these dangerous conditions do so because they’re not excused from work.

I had a scary similar experience. I had a new 1993 S10 2whl drive, nothing in the bed. I was heading to work at Applebees on Transit Rd. in Amherst. It was probably about 5:30 in the morning so traffic was close to none. This is Buffalo so the snow is coming down hard. The road was coated in fresh snow. I was approaching my exit, going slow but had to give the truck some gas. I gave it a little and sent me into a spin, went into the opposite lane of travel. Spun completely at least 3 times but hit nothing. Guardian angel maybe.

Depending on the weather, some accidents are unavoidable due to road conditions. However the main issue is most people don't know how to drive in severe weather conditions! I live in New York. Which experiences harsh Winters. I have been plowing snow privately and commercially since the age of 16. That's almost twenty years. I've operated everything from, but not limited to, a Jeep Wrangler, an F-550 super duty turbo diesel dump truck, an international Highway plow truck, and everything in between, including driving regular 2 wheel drive sedans in bad weather for friends! In those 20 years of operating various vehicles in harsh winter weather conditions, I have only gotten stuck once and I have never caused an accident! People just don't know how to drive and should stay off the roadways when advised to do so!!!!!!!!!!! That's it!!!!!!!!!! Having four wheel drive doesn't necessarily help you all the time. There is an array of things which are needed. Experience being the most important. Whether it's a 2-wheel drive sedan, or a large commercial four-wheel drive vehicle with extra weight in it and chains on the tires. Experiences the most important
