ICE

[Animl-AW]

At -40 deg. Ice is like concrete for the most part. 

It is, the colder it is the more traction you get

I lived in Alaska for 25 years, there you deal with it. Moved to Dallas in 1996, now if there is ICE on the road, I don't go anywhere, no one here knows how to drive on it.

  Had a ice storm in Birmingham one year.  They interviewed a visiting Northerner after he wrecked his car on the ice covered road.  He proclaimed our road ice was different than his northern road ice.  He then claimed he was an expert on driving on ice and he would not wreck up north.

Well, you may not use salt there, what he is probably used to.

DFW area the biggest problem are iced over bridges. People drive too fast then hit their brakes when they get on the ice.

You pour kerosene all over the road and light a match.  Now, you need a boat.

Saw that movie when I was 7 or 8. That scene always stuck with me.

I use common sense. I have a couple of four wheel drives. But I don't need them. It's not hard if you use your brain.

I was working in Evergreen, Co, winter 2000-2001. It amazed me people doing 70mph+  in 3" of snow you just had to wait for someone to slam on their brakes and watch the fun show. I swear they must of all been from Los Angeles.

Yes the ice is drier. The warmer, the softer and wetter, the ice is like a greased pig.

Tow trucks and body shops love the first snow fall.
