Oh hush it Otherhalf. No one's saying it's a big deal, I only thought I'd remind others about the silly thing.

Does anyone take winter seriously?
My last accident was in a winter freeze (in a car).
It rained all day, then started snowing and froze up quickly. A slick layer of snow covered ice. A freak Denver October storm.
I have a lot of experience in snow conditions, and no matter what I did I ended up rear-ending a car. (Granted, the driver turned short and stopped short by hitting the curb, and in rush hour I had nowhere to turn). If I had given an extra 20 feet of room, I would have avoided it. I was almost stopped when I hit.
If you look at things objectively, most accidents can be avoided.
BACK UP a little more! Give a little more room in between.
You'll be glad when your wheels start to skid. -
The newbies/wannabes/and students are asking questions, therefore they are showing concern...a legitimate concern...especially going from a 1500 pound car to 50-80k pound truck.
