Like said earlier its always 4wds you see in the ditch first when the roads get shitty.
It always amazes me though rather alot of people even know how to use it. Ive seen numerous 4wd slid in the median in a few inches of snow, no damage, and they just sit there. Literally snow i could get my 2wd ranger out of.
Storm over xmas i seen a newer silverado (with 4x4 stickers) in the median...3 inches of snow max (the road was ice) and hes just sitting there like "wtf do i do now?"
But they sit and wait for a ticket and/or wrecker. Anyone else notice this?
I’m usually too busy trying to get to work and not getting taken out by these idiots to notice.
If the roads are bad enough, I’ll opt for the secondary roads just to stay away from them. At that time in the morning, there usually isn’t much difference between the highways and the secondary roads anyway, just who’s driving on them and at what speed they are driving.
