When I was up north, I used to laugh at “you southerners” because you’d have pile-ups in the rain. “They’d never be able to drive in snow!” I’d say.

Then I got here.

See, I discovered the rain mixes with all the road-oil and it pretty much becomes snow... at least at first.

I laugh no more.

Decades ago, mid 90s, I did a 360 at speed in the middle of 400 headed to Buckhead because of that. Learned a lesson, I did. Really lucked out I didn’t hit anything.

In Virginia they like to slam on their brakes as soon as it starts raining. No taking the foot off the gas pedal and slowing down gradually. No, they panic and slam on the brakes.
