Dear Washington Residents,...
Please Do Not Freak Out!
This Is Winter.
Yes There's Snow.
This season happens Every year............Almost like Clock-Work. I Know, it mostly rains the rest of the time.
But to NOT Expect, Ice/sleet/snow/slush Etc. During this time is just Folly.
Please...Please...Please! Drive Friendly!
Dear Gods! Do Not Try and Leap Out Into traffic, With Ice/Snow on the ground. It Will NOT Work.
And Dear Gods! Do Not Cut Me Off To Make A Turn!-I May Not Be able to Stop!
Now Over the last 3 days, I've been getting some good practice, In driving in this weather.
This Does NOT Make me An Expert @ Driving In The Snow! Please Do Not Think that because you've had to brave traveling in these conditions, that YOU are now an Expert and should be allowed to drive normally as if the roads were Clear!
So Please,...Think Slow. Give Plenty Of Room. Merge Slowly. Think below 20mph.
And I shall Try To DO the Same.
One Of My Favorite Sayings..."Relax!...You'll get there."
I'm planning on taking that to heart.
Respectfully yours,
Fellow Winter Traveler Of Washington
