Obviously there are people here that have never had to deal with conditions like that. Let me tell you that it is a very sick feeling to be on a surface where you have no traction or control of what's going on. To be just along for the ride inside 3000 lbs of steel is incredibly unnerving to say the least.

Normally, we do not get much ice here; it is snow. but tonight,we had snow fall on the road, melt, and glaze over...and at then end of my road, four cars played ping-pong. They do not understand the meaning of the word SLOW...

Looks like Portland. Must have been a bit of an incline there.

Ya know, when you watch the others bounce around like billiard *****, what makes a guy think that his car will act any differently? Maybe it is time to say, "I think the trip to Home Depot can wait a while..."

How long do you think it took for someone to go to the top of that street or hill and not allow any other cars to try to drive down?

Wasn't it in one of Shakespeare's plays where somebody said,

"Road salt; Road salt! My kingdom for some road salt!" ??

Being in a situation like that can make an otherwise intelligent person do stupid things. Just imagine having your foot firmly on the brake with the wheels turned and the vehicle continues to pick up speed in a straight line!
