Part of the state of being annointed by driving an SUV includes knowing
that you can go faster on snow and ice, but not knowing that you can't slow
down as well, especially with a cell phone glued to one hand, and a John
Deere-chic travel mug in the other.
Sometimes they have even been known to pass snowplows at irresponsible
rates of speed with nasty curves ahead. Then, sometimes, what would
otherwise be a simple extraction from a ditch with a small wrecker becomes
quite a project for the big wrecker when the snow plow driver doesn't notice
them in the ditch and buries them.
Some things are better than knowing you're making triple overtime. :))
And now, back to our sponsor....
