Safe driving
I had to drive to Normal IL (about 150 miles from Chicago) today in the snow. Needless to say I nearly ran into the middle ditch twince times and nearly lost control of my car once with many cars in the middle ditches in the 150 miles trip back. I stopped and called for a tow truck for at least 4 of the guys stuck.
Guys if you are in the snowy areas, please drive slow and carefully. I had nightmares today driving back from Normal. Just in case, keep flares and charge up those cell phones. Lwin

Tread safely
I've been following your weather on the tube; be careful out there folks, especially with ice.
Arrive alive! Don |

I live in colorado and have decided to put a switch so I can go 50/50 without putting the peddel to the metal. I had an incident yesterday comming down a small grade with a right turn at the bottom. With abs doing its thing I slowed down enough to power thru the turn but with 90/10 my ass end just whipped around and I came to a stop up against the snow bank,no damage that I can see. Anybody do that mod in snow country yet?
