irony: the fact that the concept of
snap-throttle oversteer can be either fun or terrifying. it's also reassuring to know that in either event it's fairly controllable - as much so as any action involving loss of traction can be, at least.
I15 around Lenwood just sucks. Caltrans doesn't seem to know what crowning is.
driving (and especially stopping) in the tracks of the vehicle in front of you through snow is not always the best choice. for example, when their tracks are full of slush, but surrounded by dry snow, your best low-speed traction will be in the snow. at least for a few (~6) inches of snow.
when I went outside this morning, there was a solid crust of snow, some six inches deep, all over our cars. when the sun went down, they were all dry as a bone. we're getting some really weird weather this year.
driving 30 miles just to find out that the courthouse is closed for the (sunny!) day sucks.
