What part of hauling ash down an icy interstate is a good idea?

[Lonesome Dove]

Remember that big pile up on the Interstate in Fort Worth during the last snowpocalypse?
It's coming again.
Slow the hell down on icy roads.

We don;t need that again.

You can't tell Texas people to slow down. It's not that they're speeding rather its that you're going too slow.

I am still puzzled about asking for good ideas or opinions about them on TGT. I usually put ash in the fire pit. I prefer to stay home in ice storms as the drivers are crazier. The ice was infrequent on the roads today on my necessary airport trips. Tomorrow is going to be cold like today. Brrr.

I think the snow has passed. Just cold now. I think.

There are multiple highways around Houston that have been closed due to ice.
Wrecks all over have prompted the closures.
An overturned 18wheeler closed I-10 near Katy.
Stay off the roads if you can.

Shiny, jacked up 4X4 trucks make one immune to the effects of physics.

Same principle as the EV and it's effect on the environment. Both designed for large egos with small minds.

Was this before or after the ice?

@Moonpie was just hoping for some ash…

Leave me alone.

Leave me alone

Shall do!

I'm here for the ash

Just move over and get out of my way. Your driving sux.

Stop looking at my ash.

Good advice for Houston in any weather and anytime.

no ice on the roads here in Austin but I just had to drive thru a highway intersection underpass where, strangely, all traffic lights north/south bound on service roads were completely dead and so were the east/west bound road. yet, the other traffic lights just down the road each direction were working perfectly fine as were street lights. light traffic but we all pulled up to our lines and let each other go. just as I was about to go I spot some ass racing up on the dead light on the northbound service road who then proceeds to blow right thru the intersection at 45mph+. if I hadn't stopped and waited to see what stupid does......I could have gotten a replacement truck..."missed by THAT much!"

With Moonpie, it's gas, grass, or ash....

A few flakes falling, the road is absolutely fine, and idiots are driving 45 mph in the fast lane with their emergency flashers on.

driving on ice should be part of drivers curriculum. far too easy to get a drivers license in this country

Nobody can drive on 32 degree ice. Basic physics. Coefficient of friction for ice with a layer of water on it is close enough to zero.

And where would these lessons be held between February and December?
