I live in Michigan and have seen many ice storms here.
Heck, around 1979 I was involved in one. I was coming home late one night on a freeway and realized that while it was raining, it was freezing on the pavement. I automatically slowed down to maybe 25 MPH when about a mile ahead I saw flashing lights. I immediately started to ease to my right in order to get on the shoulder where there was snow and I might have had some traction. Unfortunately, my car spun sideways and I ended up sliding up the guardrail with my front tires hanging over it.
Had to be lifted off the rail by the tow truck and my front suspension was destroyed. I was lucky, if you can call it that, since there was no collision with other traffic.
Winter conditions here, people driving their SUV's with 4WD and trucks think they are immune from the weather conditions. They're the ones you see down in the ditches.....
We had one in the early 80’s in Detroit. My wife was in the hospital with pregnancy complications. I drove home that night, maybe 20 miles. There were three separate 100 some car pileups on I-94. When they got cars running they just sent people home. It looked like the end of a NASCAR shirt track race with all these crunched up cars coming up the ramp.
Generally ice storms don’t have many injuries because the crashes are at slower speeds.
