Slow Down

The other day my husband and I where driving somewhere. The roads were still pretty slippery at the intersections. I was driving down the street heading home, and some one decided to see how close they could call it to me getting to them. Hopefully they have stainless steel drums for breaks because they almost spun out on the road. They where making a right turn and took it way to fast and it was at a stop sign, at least I saw them and was able to slow down and avoid hitting the guy.
It is amazing how fast people try to drive when they can not control their cars, or trucks. It seems like people don’t realize that the vehicle they are driving can seriously hurt someone or kill them. In the winter time roads are slippery, I am not talking about staying with the flow of traffic that doesn’t bug me when I am stuck in slow moving traffic because of the weather but my goodness if everyone else is going close to speed it does bug me to have someone going 10 miles a hour and think this is cool or okay. If you can’t drive in the snow that what the city bus is for if you live in the city.
In winter months especially drivers need to give extra time to get to where ever they are going. Make sure there is plenty of breaking distance between you and the car ahead of you, and if you must make a lane change, make sure you don’t just about hit someone because you’ve lane change with no accounting for other driver errors. I hate winter and you know I don’t want to have to wait for help because someone didn’t drive with caution.
