    I feel you there,,, i only had to get pushed onto the shoulder once in Montana (fully loaded to be kissing the ground.) An empty passed me an was over down the road after i pulled into the first rest area found which was like 5 miles after that. I just aint got weight to fight wind and ice. Even if i im relativly low profile with a midroof and a 3ft high load
