It's raining. I love it.
It's foggy. I love it.

But I live in a desert and nobody here seems to know how to handle the rain, let alone the fog. (It isn't hard, people!) Last night during my ~30 min drive home from work, five separate accidents/collisions happened just a little ways behind me because it was raining. Now it's foggy, too.

I have to go to work.
I'm scared.

Turn on the damn lights! Keep save. Good luck. 😊

Were they staring into the sky or why?

idk but when it gets hot here the same thing happens

I'd like to see them drive in -20 with knee deep snow 🙂. Would be a fun watch

Had someone try running me off the road, but I made it to work safe 😊

@root @froot in England we have same with 1mm of snow the country grinds to a halt

Wanna swap places, I live in the UK

Floridians: *driving 95 on the highway during a category 4 hurricane*

To be fair, I would not be able to drive in snow if hell freezes over and takes Florida with it.

I think I live near you! I know I'm in the same time zone and we just got hit with fog and rain. Either way, I love it! Rain puts me in a good mood.

@philcr @AlgoRythm Hehe. Snow's not that hard at all. You'll get used to it.

We get some slow traffic for like 3 days after snow hits but then its all back to normal

The only weather I'm actually scared to drive in is:
• high winds (my car is a sail)
• blizard (and white out!)
• ice / black ice

Everything else is rather lovely.

I used to drive for the mail company teaches you quite some things like controlled sliding on snow and respecting the load.
Had a scare once on a badly maintained van. Just a little rain and a tight corner but the van almost went straight. Now I always check the tires for at least some profile before I drive someone else's vehicle.

It's kinda ridiculous how all trains and traffic bog down in the Netherlands at the hint of a few snow flakes.
