That's the way it is around here. Everyone forgets that we have freezing rain and snow in winter, but their driving skills are only for summer.
 
Abandoning vehicle in the middle of the road keeps from having to be pulled out of the ditch. I think that question is on the driving tests here.

Happy Veterans Day, Good Luck to all, jack
 
It's more like Dallas. The piles of cars at every bridge when they get ice are comical.
 
Some of the worst drivers in snow I have seen was in Iowa.
I was pulling a 20 foot trailer with a 2 wheel drive Dodge 3500 and had no problems even in Iowa City hills.
Also saw terrible drivers in a "blizzard" in St. Louis using the same truck and trailer.
Of course we have our share of idiots here in SC where I have driven by 4 WD trucks in the ditch while driving my old 51 Chevy PU with narrow tires and loaded down with firewood.
Snow was drifted where you could not tell where the road or the ditches were.
So there are idiot drivers everywhere.
Richard in NW SC where I have seen snow 14 inches deep
 
Many 4 W D folks think just because they have the "go power", they forget that they have no more "whoa power" than a 2 W D and end up in the ditch.
 
Richard, come to MN... "you ain't seen nuthin' yet", regarding crazy winter drivers. We might beat out Iowa. :(
 
You're in northwest South Carolina.

I was discharged from the Marine Corps at Beaufort, on the east coast. It was in November, and my car, a rear wheel drive Mercury, needed rear tires anyway, so I thought that coming back to Nebraska in November I may as well put snow tires on right away.

The only way I could get snow tires in Beaufort was to order them out of the Sears Roebuck catalog. (That's not to denigrate Beaufort, it's just the way it was).
 
We had 6 in St Cloud. One of my Jeep, The black car lives across the street from me and was raked from tail light to headlight with a snow plow this am. It was a nice Nissan. There was a no parking snow regulation that was ignored. The car in front of it was spared. Jim

The next morning they could not believe how slick it was, guess there ice is ruff up there.
