"No one seems to be able to drive in the rain"

When I lived in Colorado we got overrun with Texans during hunting season, and while I love my Texas friends, those people do NOT know how to drive in the snow! They don't do so hot on dry roads either.

Ain't that the truth. Many many years ago when I was still living at home with my parents in Idaho, near Boise(I was probably around 18 or s0), I was driving up to Bogus Basin (ski area) to make a few turns. I got behind a car with Texas plates. The car had chains on. The thing is, the road was bone dry. I had to follow the car all the way up the hill, because there was no place to pass. The chains were kicking up sparks, and eventually the links began to break, and were beating up the wheel wells. I guess the driver was worried about ice.
