Damn lucky!!!
Watching videos of the pileup in MI a week or so back, drivers driving WAY too fast for conditions.
You can break a lot of traffic laws while driving and not get caught, BUT break one of the law of physics, and punishment is swift and sure!!!
The same salesperson, that tells you your F150 will tow anything on the lot, will tell you traction control means you can drive like the pavement is dry!!!
Ever drive into a wall of snow that came out of no where? one minute you are driving 65mph and no snow, within seconds you hit a wall of snow. you only have a few seconds to adjust speed. unfortunately that`s all it takes for bad things to happen!
Not the visibility, the overall condition of the road!!
To answer your question yes, but I was not already driving 65 due to the overall conditions!! Blinding snow is a result of ALREADY SNOWING!!!
Driving 65 on a road with on a questionable surface conditions in traffic that heavy is defined as insanity!
Conditions like this require reduced speed and extra care!
Say what??? Look at that blue sky, it will be fine I've got a 4wd!!!! LOL
LOL, yes do have 4X4 and had the 5er in tow!rhagfo wrote:

True...however I've driven that exact same road many times in the same or worse conditions. The person driving scared to death, white knuckled and 10mph is equally a big danger on the road.
Sometimes you just gotta :S

I don't envy anyone having to drive or live in these conditions and the car that was doing the video appears to be driving too fast IMHO. - How does that truck keep from rolling?
