Native Coloradan here, we have winter tires, sanded roads, delays, etc......and people STILL can't drive. Videos like this make my day 😂

Lived in Seattle around 1986, when we had a huge snowstorm all day. I was rebuilding fireplaces back than, so I literally had a ton of bricks in my Dodge Polara station wagon, when I started my way back home from North Seattle to mid U-district. I planned my route really carefully, no hills etc, not easy in Seattle, and it took me three hours to get home, versus 15 minutes to get to my job, and I met 3 cars on the way. Never ever had three hours of cold sweat like that.

in my place - this is how Winter usually looks like and we have no such problems. The drivers need to use proper season tires, while road services should do the job on time using salt and sand.

i miss seattle lmao. this was a funny video to watch. i remember a few pretty bad storms around 2010-2011 that was kinda like this storm, but way more ice. it was like inches of ice covering everything, and shut down the whole city. probably wasn't the first time but that's the time i was there to experience it. stay safe out there and make wise decisions drivers!

I have to say, compared to all the KZread videos I've seen of winter driving, these people are actually doing pretty well. Don't get me wrong; ALL of them should have stayed home. Even so, you don't see any of these people coming down the hill at full speed and expecting to be able to stop at the traffic light. Except for the fact that they're on the road at all (and that one jackass going the wrong way on a divided highway), they're all being very cautious. I've seen lots of videos of winter drivers in places where snowy roads are the norm for four months of the year who go the full speed limit or are outright speeding and smash into other cars or they hit a curve and they spin right off the road because they're not taking the weather conditions into account at all.

Yes, it takes a bit longer to get to the destination when it's snowing and blowing like crazy and you don't see where the road are but it still works. Never stuck. Never slid off. Nothing.
