Are you intimidated by winter driving? What the hell are you doing up
here then? Do you know where you are? This isn't the [Disallowed String for - bad word]ing jungle or
desert.




You inevitably pull out in front of me when there's no one behind
me, and you would've waited another 15 seconds to not make anyone slam
on their brakes on ice and snow. You then continue to drive really
slow, say less than half the speed limit. No one in their right mind
would pass someone on roads with a 2 ft snow drift in the median during
a snow storm. So, I'm stuck behind you until you pull into whatever
casino, bingo hall, party, or wherever you're headed that's OK be late
to. Yes, I realize that driving on slippery roads and in low visibility
can be scary, so I appreciate you driving within your limits. However,
don't pull out in front of a car when you know you're not going to at
least go the speed limit! Just wait another 30 seconds maybe (since you
obviously aren't in a hurry anyway), and you won't ruin someone else'
day. Also, when you see a line of cars 30-50 deep trapped behind you,
you don't have to speed up, no, but you SHOULD pull over to let some
by. You're obviously doing a really shitty job of setting the pace on
this "not-safe-for-passing" road. Do us ALL a favor and let us get to
our families, jobs, and real obligations, and pull the [Disallowed String for - bad word] over for
[Disallowed String for - bad word]'s sake! It's a common courtesy. If the shoulder has been replaced
by a 14 ft wall of plowed snow (as we all know happens up here), find a
decently plowed side road to pull on to for a minute. Don't be
surprised or offended when you get 25 middle fingers and 37 horns out
of the 50 cars you [Disallowed String for - bad word]ed for the last hour and a half that are now
passing you.





Here are some tips for you that will make both of our lives easier:




1. Your winter driving confidence will grow 10 fold if you get rid
of that 1994 Buick front wheel drive and get something with all wheel
drive. You don't need a huge truck or SUV, but just something that
actually gets some traction. Try a used Subaru. They're all wheel
drive, cheap, and fuel efficient.




2. Go practice in an empty parking lot, and see what exactly your
limits are and those of your vehicle. You won't get arrested for
sliding around an empty parking lot Sunday evening outside of town.




3. You don't want to give up your front wheel drive Buick? Get some
snow tires! At least for the front two wheels, but better yet all of
your wheels could use them. You will be amazed at what a good set of
snow tires actually do for your driving and confidence. There's a
reason why they're popular up here.





4. Wait until the last car passes before pulling on to the road. See above. Shit!




5. Stay the [Disallowed String for - bad word] home! Visibility to low? Too windy? Icy roads?
Then don't drive to the casino to lose another $200 bucks out of your
$300 paycheck and jeopardize the roads for the rest of us. Stay home
and watch game shows and beat your wife/husband/dog or whatever you
sleep with at night.




6. Don't like option #5? Take a cab! Believe it or not, these guys
are good at winter driving. They do this for a living and they're
really quite nice people. Besides, the cab ride to the casino or bingo
hall will only cost a fraction of what you'll lose once you get there.
Plus you save the embarrassment of getting flipped off by grandma in
the Ford Expedition while passing you.




7. Move to the South. I bet you'd fit in there anyway. Not sure
what their casino scene is like, but you'll find some other
unintelligent way to lose money. You can keep your Buick, too!




I realize the people who are actually the offenders are probably not
going to read this, at least not many of them. First you have to get a
computer. Then resist the urge to pawn it for casino money. If you know
any of these assholes, tell them what you think about following them at
20 mph on Highway 41 or M28 for two goddamn hours. Thanks!




I'll see you on the road!
