Wasn't worth trying to pass in those road and weather conditions, IMHO --------------------  “One way to distinguish Conservatives from Liberals is that the former excuse the unethical inclinations of the wealthy whereas the latter excuse the unethical inclinations of the poor.” |

I just watched that video somewhere else and I have to say I'm glad I saw it today and not yesterday when I had to drive to Sudbury in that awful weather. People make me wonder. The roads were not good. Visibilty was lousy. And still people felt a need to pass. I just don't get it.

I saw that the other day, somewhere, as well. Disturbing to say the least

I can't say I blame you LG. There are a lot of idiots out there that do some pretty stupid stuff. I can't believe what I have seen on the roads of Northern Ontario....never mind in more populace areas with more lanes of traffic.

Thanks i have driven on the 17 in a whiteout, terrifying, also driven on other roads in Canada, 41, 69, been caught in bad weather, but thank god i follow the golden rule, you will get there either way , so keep it safe, i drove the whole 41 from Pembroke to the 401, some of the most beautiful scenery i have seen, not a bit of snow in Feb, crossed over at Ganacqua, hit 81 and was pummeled with snoe from Watertown all the way to 476, the blue route outside of Philadelphia. |

Truth be told Johnny you're more likely to get there if you play it safe and slow the hell down. I don't know why people are in such a hurry to get where they're going when the roads are a mess. I'd rather take longer to get there and arrive alive than ignore the conditions and arrive in an ambulance..or a hearse.
