re: #170 thedopefishlives

Probably. But then again, we always get a good laugh when we see traffic at a standstill in some Southern state because a single snowflake touched down somewhere. Here in Minnesnowta, the attitude is more like, “Hell, we’ll drive even crazier when the snow starts flying, because screw safety, that’s why.”

To be entirely fair, a large part of that is due to not having resources for dealing with snow/ice, since that gets expensive and it’s not really a great investment if you normally get snow once every 10 years. Up north, snow is a fact of life and setting aside funds and resources to deal with it are a given.
