Driving too fast for conditions...speeders in Red Hampshire have ‘taken out’ 19 State Trooper cruisers so far this exceptionally nasty winter season.

I don’t understand. Must have been an out-of-state motorist.

No, really, drivers in upstate NY can handle twice this much snow with no problem at all.

How can you say that? Who doesn’t want to go to upstate New York for spring vacation?

Too clean looking - might be a milk truck. Or at least some literal consumable.

No worries. It's written into the grime on the back of the tank, there. It was Baby Milk. From the Baby Milk Plant.

Actually there are far too many people who are too scared and go slowly. Then they get stuck or start slipping and have/cause an incident.

I’ve never yet seen anyone going too fast as the oft-stated canard is. Where are these speedsters everyone talks about all the time? They aren’t around me. Maybe because I’m the fastest out there. ;-D
