    It has been snowing along the I-15 / I-80 corridor for most of the night. So Salt lake and the surrounding region will have some problems. For the most part, it should be good roads. The snow is not sticking on pavement.

    Preventing animal cruelty
    Maryland high school student Sydney Helfand started a petition in January urging Congress to pass the Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture (PACT) Act to make animal cruelty a federal felony.

    The PACT Act had come extremely close to becoming law in 2017. Though the Senate passed it unanimously, it stalled in the House.

    Nearly 800,000 people signed the petition and in November, the Senate passed the bipartisan legislation that the House had approved a month earlier.

    US Rep. Ted Deutch of Florida credited Helfand, in part, for the bill's success. President Donald Trump signed the PACT Act into law.

    Asking those with a newer Cascadia....
    The air tank in the rear. It has two pulls to drain air. One in front. One in rear.
    Is that tank actually two tanks? Divided in the middle?

    They have a picture of the other side of that run under crash. Person in SUV died ( R.I,P, ).
    There's no skidmarks visible in the pic that I see. That means dude hit that truck full blast.

    They taught me in Mexico. There a Gringo is someone who has all this stuff, expensive car, money. Doesn't matter ethnicity, or national origin. But usually from the USA.
    I might add myself.... Someone who is out of touch with what's important in life.
     
    FlaSwampRat and Rocks Thank this.
