Weather has magic properties, because anytime it snows, or gets foggy, or even rains too hard, people loose their shit while driving. So here is a guide on how to survive this hazardous driving, and not be that dumbass stuck in the median of the freeway.
1. This: "Oh my tires are spinning, I should let off the gas, then gently ease back on."
NOT THIS: "OH GOD OH GOD WHEELS DOING THE SPINNING BETTER FLOOR IT THEN I'LL BE FREE, FREEEEEDOM"
2. This: "Oh no I seem to be sliding a bit. I should gently ease off the gas pedal and correct it."
NOT THIS: "THIS ISN'T THE DIRECTION I WISH TO GO I SHOULD TOTALLY STOMP THE BREAKS AND WRENCH THE WHEEL ALL THE WAY FROM SIDE TO SIDE, OH LOOK IM SPINNING WHEEEEEE"
3. This: "That car in front of me is traveling at a safe speed for these road conditions, I'll give them their space and travel at this safe speed."
NOT THIS: "LOOK AT THIS NOOB ASSHOLE DRIVING ALL SLOW, I BETTER FLOOR IT, TAILGATE THEM FOR THREE MILES, MAKE THEM NERVOUS AS HELL, THEN DART AROUND THEM AND CUT OFF ONCOMING TRAFFIC."
4. This: "That car in front of me is loosing control, I should back off and maybe throw on my hazards to alert people behind me that there is a potential problem."
NOT THIS: "HAHA SUCKER TOO BAD NO ONE EVER TAUGHT YOU HOW TO DRIVE, I'M GOING TO SWERVE AROUND YOU AND SPEED PAST CAUSE I'M A RACE CAR DRIVER AND ICE CAN'T DO SHIT TO MY MAGIC UNICORN TREAD TIRES. OH SHIT I'M IN THE DITCH TOO."
5. This: "Wow it's really foggy, I'll just turn my driving lights on, or just my dims, that way everyone can see me but I'm not blinding anyone."
NOT THIS: "FOG YAY DON'T MY BRIGHT ASS L.E.D. LIGHTS LOOK SICK IN THIS FOG. I CAN'T SEE AND YOU CAN'T SEE BUT IT'S LIKE A RAVE ON THE FREEWAY."
What I'm getting at here, is calm down, don't make any sudden moves, don't stomp on any of those pedals, and for christ's sake DIM YOUR EVERLOVING LIGHTS OR I'LL STAB YOU IN THE FACE WITH A RUSTY FORK.
