    Was it THAT slippery?!?
    I talked to my girlfriend while she was driving to school, said she couldnt talk cus traffic was so bad, and she hung up on me

    Never did call me back yet. I didnt think it snowed that much. But hey, I just woke up for the second time today

    I've still got my summer tires on, got my benz back yesterday, the roads look a little wet but no snow or anything on them, do you think it'l be frozen roads at night? I'm trying to figure out if i should drive the volvo or the benz to school tonight.

    - The volvo has winter tires on it.

    Take the Volvo, temperature will dip below freezing tonight and if the roads are still slushy, better safe than sorry

    I drove my dads forester today, I feel so much safer in a AWD car during this weather.....if my car had snow tires, I wouldn't worry at all, but it doesn't

    I drove my friends slk last winter for about a week, with the stock tires that thing was all over the road! even with traction control I was still fishtailing all over the place! kinda fun but scary too
