Drive slowly on snow. 90% of driving works just fine so long as you go slow. And that doesn’t mean 35 in a 40 zone. That means 10 in a 40 zone.
Drive super fucking slow on snow, and you’ll be fine.
People who come from warmer climates to snow always fuck this up, and it’s so simple. I think there’s a pride thing involved. So just get over your “I can do this” pride, and drive ultra slow.
At least at first. You can speed up a little once you get a sense of what makes the car slide, but to start with just go ultra ultra slow.
It is super annoying when there's a really slow driver on the highway. Usually the right lane is pretty clean from people driving on it continuously and the left lane is completely fubar. So it's safe to go faster in the right lane, but very dangerous to pass using the left lane. I'm talking about when there's two dry tracks with a little bit of snow between them and lots of salt on the road. Safe to go 40-45mph with no issue, but they want to do 25.
