The benz would be fine with good tires on it. When it started getting squirrley it was VERY easy to correct without overcorrecting. Camaro is not even gettign unlocked... hyundai's being driven to work. Unless my dad's not back in time, then i'll see hwo the bald tires fare...

The roads suck, and other drivers are worse.

its almost time for Redneck Sledding. A few people are rounding up some sleds as we speak, and we are just gonna wait for a little more accumulation.

Well, the SS wasn't as bad as I thought it would be in the sleet. We have no snow yet, nothing but sleet piling up(2-3" so far). I just got home from work and it wasn't that bad except for the paranoid people doing 9 mph! My driveway was a bit of a challenge but a couple of tries and I made it up. Mmmm, 80 degrees Wed and 28 and sleet Fri. Global confusion!

Passed seven accidents, two head-on and two t-bone, on route 202 between Bernardsville and Bedminster. Lotsa cops out dealing with crap tonight.

drag radials + snow = my normal 10 min ride home from work to 45 mins.

proceeded by an old lady in a Oldsmobile laughing at me because i tried three times to pull out of my work up a hill and kept sliding back down. (i had to wait for a plow)
