Icy Roads
Well today was the first day that the residents of
Central Virginia got a taste of winter.......
It appears that starting about 8:30AM, at the
end of rush hour, a little rain fell and caused
some icing of the roads and overpasses......
There were some 100 vehicle accidents during
a one hour period.......The State and city police
had to prioritize and respond to accidents which
had personal injuries first........
One TV reporter questioned a man who, while
being stuck in traffic, did not have an accident....
She asked him, "How did it feel driving in the
weather conditions"......He replied, "I'm from
New England and it is not a problem".....
This post is dedicated to my friends who know
and respect the snow when driving....Pumps
