of ice if the roads aren't cleared.

I grew up in NY and also lived in Evanston IL and in NH for several years - the South is particularly bad at handling snow.

Some of it (maybe most) is related to not investing in the quantity of removal equipment because it doesn't snow as much here; but the fact that they never plow the side streets in my area (ever, in 15 years of living at my address) is frustrating to me.

My Camry does okay in snow, but my wife's Hyundai is useless in it.

I tried driving my Miata in snow/ice once. Once. - PWK2 2018-12-11 17:23:04
