Yeah lots of retards today, whipped around someone doing 15km/h on 16th by Home Depot and they weren’t happy.

If your avg speed drops below half of the posted limit in bad weather and you get caught doing so... License revoked.
(should be a rule).

Considering its 50-70 in a lot of spots now.

I think half is way too generous. 40 in an 80, GTFO. I'm ok with someone going 60.

The 20km/h drivers I encountered were in fucking 60 and 70 zones. They think slow is safe but they're the most dangerous fuckers out there today.

Fluffy out there but not terrible apart from a few icy intersections. Hakkas are getting a bit low on tread but still working well enough for another season.

Took a quick rip out to grab some breakfast. The All weathers stood up just fine. I laughed at the bus that was stuck trying to leave a stop at a 45* with the rear leaning up against the bus sign.
Was able to hit the speed limit when there was no one in front of me.
All weathers + 4Auto + LSD = Yes plz.

True!

I iced up 14th St NW for everyone (you're welcome!).
4wd drift with no traction control on. 3 city blocks was my longest. Too risky through a set of lights.

Left almost double my commute time to get to work today and still ended up late. Stoney was largely a case of people not using the lines and weaving randomly back and forth, driving 40 in the fast lane, and vehicles scattered in the ditches.

I think the story is the same every year - the first snowfall catches all the people who are either ill equipped to handle the winter conditions, too scared to travel at reasonable speeds, or clueless as to the illogical things they are doing which endanger or frustrate those around them.

People may have procrastinated putting winters on because it was 21c not 2 weeks ago.

Then everyone rushed to get it done last week or so if they are not equipped to DIY.

PA5s are doable and decent drift speeds, but still not great on icy intersections. Still, easily speed limit.

[ExtraSlow]

Extra 1 minute to get into downtown. The joys of living near downtown. Looks like many people stayed home. My truck got better parking than normal for a Wednesday.

[Tik-Tok]

LPT for trucks with hard tonneau covers. These get the snow off the back very efficiently, and can easily be stored in your truck bed.

@D’z Nutz will still enjoy his bike lanes to work

No way man. On days like this, I'll take the whole car lane cause the bike lanes wouldn't have been cleared yet hahaha

It was 18* here in Deadmonton on Sunday. Couple inches this morning.

Awd and half bald all seasons, time to do my best Ken Block impersonation (including the crashing of course).

[rage2]

I was asked why I didn’t help. There’s no helping stupid lol. Who the fuck thinks they can get thru an unplowed driveway by going full tilt into it?

Selfishness and stupidity completely blocked snow plow, school busses. Good work.

[JfuckinC]

ah thats not fair, probably hard to tell the depth!

Looks like they have winters at least.

[rage2]

Nah it was pretty obvious. It gets higher past that point. Massive snowdrift.

[suntan]

You need Type R to get through that.

[ExtraSlow]

I don't help people who are stuck unless it's right in front of my house.
