This is my own little soapbox. Disclaimer: It is not written by someone you think you know, but by her evil twin. Absolutely nothing said here is true. Everything, including the last statement, is a complete work of fiction. This blog is completely boring, and includes entries on when I last washed my dishes, how many pairs of socks I've crocheted, and the occasional rant. These are not the droids you're looking for. Move along.

Remember to Drive Safely
The streets are slippery. Give yourself extra stopping time. Don't follow too closely. Reduce your speed. Don't do this: (The view from my bus stop this morning.)
And pump your brakes if you don't have ABS. Oh, and turn the wheel the direction that you're sliding...
Ah, the things I recall from my childhood in a state where it actually snowed in the wintertime. :-)
That picture reminds me of the Triangle area when it *rains* anymore. It's been so long since we've had any, people have forgotten how to drive when the streets are wet.

And remember that if you *do* have ABS, it takes *longer* to stop!
ReplyDeleteStill no rain? That's sad. :(
But the snow looks so pretty in the background!
ReplyDeleteI never driven in really bad snow or ice, so I'm sure that would be my car in those photos if I had to drive.
