      I think the idiot population increases 100000000000 fold after the first snowfall. Can someone explain why traffic moves at 5mph every morning on I-94?

          I still haven't gotten over last winter when it took me over a minute to get over the I-94 West to I-29 North on/offramp. 8MPH on the interstate brought me to the brink of blowing my brains out...

              i recommend not driving when and where other people do 🙂

              also, avoid the routes taken by the usual idiots. anything in bizzarro fargo (that's west of 25th street, and along 13th ave S and south of 13th ave) is going to be awful.... 13th, 32nd, 42nd..

              my wife and I do everything we can to avoid taking 13th on the weekends... too many lethargic and inattentive drivers.

              the southwest part of town is where you see lots of strip malls and people driving luxury SUVs, which as i've mentioned before, are nearly the exclusive pasture of the stupid. avoid these problem areas of town, if possible.

                One could say that you should have been traveling slower in these slippery conditions in order to be prepared should someone pull out in front like that...

                  One could also say that it would benefit everyone more if the average driving skill wasn't that of a drunk 3 year old.

                    There is erring on the side of caution and then there is retardation. People shouldn't have to live life with a "I have to plan everything around all the fucking idiots surrounding me" attitude or mindset.

                      Easy...because EVERY morning that there is snow/ice there is at least 1 or 2 people in the ditch who were traveling too fast (sometimes still well below the posted limits....saw it this morning...dude slid into ditch in a fwd Buick while going about 35-40 mph...his ass end whipped around on him w/ zero warning) So everyone behind him taps their brakes...Say I slow down 5 mph, the guy behind me slows 7mph, guy behind him slows 10mph, etc, etc, etc... next thing you know, traffic stops damn near.

                        If you aren't keeping a mindset that everyone else is a threat on the road, you become much more likely to be in an accident. I drive 60,000+ every year, and have for the past 7 years with zero accidents. I leave 5 minutes earlier than normal when I go places around town in bad weather conditions and very seldom am late. 5 minutes of my time isn't worth getting pissed off over.

                          Like I said, there is erring on the side of caution and then there is overkill. You can still plan on being around other idiots and not have to be a complete retard in the process.

                            There still is no excuse for traffic to be going 40mph or below on interstate when there is not snow or ice on it at all. Those people make me go crazy.

                              Was it the light blue 80s pos that was on the 29 north onramp from 94?

                              Not bad to look at though

                                  Its like every time it snows their brains reset and they suddenly don't remember how they got around last year. Thank god I work nights and don't have to deal with that BS anymore I94 westbound at 8 am was hell the last couple of years. Even if its a little slick you dont need to do 35, just pay attention and slow down a little 20 mph under the speed limit is a hazard to others just as much as 20 mph over is. If the roads are not that bad, and i constanly test them with my right foot:D, I'm doing 40-45 by the time i get to the bottom of the exit, if not faster. if I hit the interstate and you're doing 20mph under the limit, because your a moron and dont realize the roads arent that bad, you are a hazard to me and i will then want nothing more than to see you slide off into the ditch because you drive like a drunk 3 year old.

                                    The last time it snowed, one punk high school kid in a beat up Civic tried to race me on ice down 42nd st.

                                    Last week, some lady in a huge Excursion tried to pull a U turn on 32nd ave with traffic coming at her less than 100 yards away. Apparently, she thought her giant truck had the turning radius of a small car. She made it half way before she hit the far curb and blocked traffic, had to back up, and finish turning.

                                      Some guy in an blue Expedition almost hit me when I was driving to Target the other day, didn't even look or stop at the stop sign, I sped up otherwise he would have nailed my door.

                                        I usually try to avoid main roads this time of year...especially 13th by the mall...too many stupid drivers...

                                        Current Cars:
                                        08 Honda Ruckus - Stunt Machine
                                        93 Subaru Impreza L - DD/ Winter beater
                                        90 Honda CRX - Project car
                                        90 Honda CRX Dx - Burnt (R.I.P.) - Racecar

                                          I was on a small road by MSUM, by Nelson hall(all of the roads by MSUM are shit right now BTW) and this dude just pulled right out. I've seen tons of shitty drivers and funny accidents so far since it snowed. I'm pretty sure people's IQs drop when the snow does.
