    That's because they get the "I have 4 wheel drive and am invincible" attitude. I love when it gets slick out, look at the body shops a week later, 2/3s of the lot is 4wds with the hood shoved up because they couldn't stop. They can get started quicker but don't stop any faster.

    When I drove tour buses, many a night I had a vehicle on the wrong side of a 4 lane going the wrong way, that's why I had strobe lights put in the bus.

    That's a bad idea , if you were not involved its best to continue on, stopping often leads to law suits these days.

    I'll stop, if you want to sue me for checking on someone, go ahead.

    I stopped at a rollover with my pickup, had it sitting on the wrong side of the road near the vehicle with the leds and strobes going, one person said, "Can you move it so cars can get by?" I told them, I'll move it when RESCUE gets here, not until, the other lane is open!!!!!!
