I am sure that few bridge designers south of NYC have any knowledge of how to prevent bridge icing. Its also astonishing how many of these clumsy drivers are professionals who are not adapting to the road conditions.

I worked at a mountain-top ski resort for decades and was always amazed that the 4x4's were the first to end up in the ditch when the road (full of swichbacks) got icy. And I think it has less to do with driving or stopping ability (as mentioned below) as the very human proclivity to rely on it (technology) more than on common sense. There's the impression that it's a "superpower" over the other vehicles, and that naturally affects how one drives. I know that a good set of snow tires do the same for me. And I find myself relying more and more on the technological advantage they give me to take chances I wouldn't if I just had all-season tires on.

Back in the 1980's I was in the Military Police stationed in Kaiserslautern West Germany. I was the NCOIC of Traffic Investigations. Basically I was in charge of this section. Kaiserslautern was the largest American Community outside the US. Back then we had some very bad winters where stuff like this happened all the time. I remember we investigated more snow and ice related accidents during the winter than in any other place I was stationed at. We investigated a fatality that happened at around 9pm one night. This investigation took quite some time before I was comfortable signing off on the report. Mainly because with a fatality involved other than the unfortunate fatality, someone else's life could possibly be changing for a long time based on what the report said. So consequently this one was difficult because no alcohol involved to make things obvious. The car was taking an on ramp to the freeway (autobahn) they spun out of control and we're broadsided by a semi. By the time we arrived there were a lot of other vehicles around so trying to figure out what happened wasn't very straight forward. It wasn't until about a week and a half later I decided to go back out to the area because the weather that particular night was very close to what it was the night of the accident. So at about 8:30pm I called one of my guys and went out to the scene of where the accident was to check things out. It wasn't until I was walking up the on ramp when I discovered what actually happened the night of the accident. I fell on my back. What made it so difficult was the ice was only at the very spot where the road crested. By the time we arrived the night of the accident so much had been going on that the ice was not there when we arrived. This icy spot was just at the point where the car enters the autobahn. When going on a freeway we naturally accelerate to merge with traffic, sort of a slight left to right banana route so to speak. Since the ground was just wet everywhere else there was no way for a driver to know a small strip of the road was nothing but black ice. As they accelerated onto the autobahn they turned very slightly to the right to merge and when they did that they were at the only place on the road that had ice, this put the car into a slide sideways and the semi came along and got them in the rear door. Very unfortunate turn of events. One in a million I would say because you had to turn your car just at the right moment for it to happen. All during those two weeks we investigated it, the driver and the drivers commander called me just about every other day to see if we finished the investigation. Once I was able to settle on how the accident would be labeled I contacted the drivers commander and briefed him on what would be appearing in the Military Police Blotter the next day. A copy of the MP Blotter was taken to the community commander each morning by me. This was so I could answer any questions he may have. The accident was titled in the MP Blotter as - "Traffic Accident, (fatality) - "No Fault". Which I knew was going to generate several questions. I had to brief the community commander how we came about a "no fault" fatality accident but when I explained everything he agreed. I felt pretty good about getting that one right because usually when there is a death involved, someone ends up doing time or something just as bad so this was very important to get right. In the whole time I was there in Kaiserslautern this was the only "no fault" fatality we ever did. I still to this day wonder what conclusion we would have come to had I not gone back out there and found that the road crested in such a way that with a little breeze black ice could form at a very dangerous place. After almost two weeks of working on this accident, that moment I fell was just one of those moments like you felt like you found the cure to a rare disease. I was then really looking forward to letting the drivers commander know. I really liked that particular duty assignment. We all worked very well together and always did what had to be done to get the job done. Even if it meant going out to an accident scene almost two weeks later between 8:30pm and 9pm. Taking the time to take that extra step is what made a huge difference in someone's life.

Very good point, if you have the choice. If you live in an area that gets a lot of freezing rain, or wet snow that easily packs to ice, get studs. Most important is to learn all the skills you can. Most important advice, do not panic, if you notice in many of these instances the wheels are not moving, meaning the brakes are on full. 4 wheel drive is useless in any of these circumstances, it is only good for launching in deep snow, or climbing steep grades. Space yourselves triple what you would in normal conditions, and look everywhere. Always allow yourself an escape route like some of those drivers did. They kept moving but snaked around the vehicle in distress.

I air down my light truck tires to 30 psi for a larger contact patch and more grip. Also, most high mileage tires turn into a rock in the cold, get a real winter tire that stays pliable and will grip the ice as much as possible.

People hear the traffic and weather reports and think "it'll be okay, I'm a good driver" and then they end up trying to mate their car with a guard rail. They fail to understand being a good driver is more than skill (or luck in most cases) it's about preparations that start long before the snow starts. Having brakes in good order year round, good all season tires or better yet winter tires, knowing if your car has ABS and the braking distance on different surfaces, good wipers and washer fluid, even knowing how and when to use the front and rear defrosters are all things to be taken care of long before "Oh Shit" is uttered. It's the beginning of August and I just picked up my winter tires for the upcoming winter, which means I'll have the very best tires for the winter and I saved 20% instead of finding the good ones are sold out and getting gouged on bad ones (yeah, start researching winter tires in the spring or summer, check the tread depth and overall condition of the tires when they come off in the spring, don't assume they've got another winter in them). "Good driving" starts long before you leave the driveway.

@thedragonguy6159

5 жыл бұрын

An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a safety anti-skid braking system used on aircraft and on land vehicles, such as cars, motorcycles, trucks and buses. ABS operates by preventing the wheels from locking up during braking, thereby maintaining tractive contact with the road surface. ABS is an automated system that uses the principles of threshold braking and cadence braking which were once practised by skilful drivers with earlier non-ABS braking systems. ABS operates at a very much faster rate and more effectively than most drivers could manage. Although ABS generally offers improved vehicle control and decreases stopping distances on dry and slippery surfaces, on loose gravel or snow-covered surfaces, ABS may significantly increase braking distance, while still improving steering control.Since ABS was introduced in production vehicles, such systems have become increasingly sophisticated and effective. Modern versions may only prevent wheel lock under braking, but may also alter the front-to-rear brake bias. This latter function, depending on its specific capabilities and implementation, is known variously as electronic brakeforce distribution, traction control system, emergency brake assist, or electronic stability control (ESC)

When you lock up your wheels, you can not steer. Drive slower. If you have to brake quickly. Place your trans in neutral, and stab brake.

I'm confused, can I use this for broadcast or no?

A lot of these drivers handled their vehicles well considering....

This is why sometimes winter tiers aren’t always the best by its self. Get some studs and you well have a better chance lol

****Warning, long post below**** Number one cause of these drivers losing control is.... speed too fast for conditions. If you must push through, increase your following distance by multiples. Don’t drive in the pack, stay away from other vehicles. Read the road, looking for slopes which can cause a slide. Slow waaaaay down. Brakes are the enemy, you should not need them if your speed and following distance are correct. When you need to slow down, pretend there is an egg between your foot and the brake pedal (very light pressure). If you start to lose control stop doing whatever it is that caused the lack of traction (braking, acceleration, steering). Once you regain control, try again, but more gently. Avoid hills whenever possible, but understand that you need to carry some speed to get you up the hill. If you lose momentum on a hill, you probably won’t be able to get the vehicle moving up the hill again. Every action you take with the vehicle should be planned way in advance by anticipating potential hazards. Loosen your death grip on the steering wheel and hold it gently with the correct hand position (this will give you the feedback and feel of what the vehicle is doing). Find a large empty area where you can make the vehicle lose control on purpose and practice recovery maneuvers. Watch videos and educate yourself on the proper techniques to regain control before winter begins. Make sure your vehicle is in tip top shape before winter begins. Have emergency supplies in the vehicle. Be sure your cell phone is fully charged before venturing out. It is always best to stay off the roads when conditions are extreme. There are many great tips in the comment section below. There is much more to add, but I feel like I’m writing a book. Haha. I completed more than 1 million safe miles in all weather conditions as an over the road truck driver before becoming a local driver in a warm climate. I hope these tips might help and keep you all safe. Be well. Cheers
