I’m not going to argue that anyone south of the Mason-Dixon isn’t an idiot, but you’d be surprised just how slippery a little snow will make a road with zero plowing, sand, or salt. ---

Most of them have never driven in the snow before. The part I find funnier is that when these snow storms hit us, the grocery stores instantly run out of the following: Milk, bread, fire starter logs. ---

The roads in atlanta are very coarse and as soon as rain gets on 75 it’s like ice. That and half those people probably ride around on bald tires all year. ---

Also, no salt at all, the most you get is sand. Most localities have zero snow plows. The roads suck, but the people suck more. ---

people in the south just cannot drive at all. EXPECIALLY in texas. it rains once in texas and you can count the cars down the highway that are crashed off the road. in the rain. They close schools for cold wind in texas. I was driving down I-37 in the rain, on a short strech I watched 7 cars skid off or spin out. It wasnt even slippery. I hate the south. ---
