i look outside my window

if i see 5 cm of snow on the ground, chances are there's traffic backups everywhere and people would be crawling everywhere

You're just assuming it took him so long because he was going slowly, and not that he was forced to go slowly because of other cars..

I'm assuming we're talking about the GTA and if we are, it's really not that bad out there; but, of course put a few mm of snow and slush down and people drive like they are sick, unfortunately. :rolleyes:

Snow hasn't really started falling, apparently that's not happening until tomorrow morning when it will be crazy snow conditions. Right now it's nearly a joke. Really light snow, accumulating a bit over time sure, but nothing spectacular.

I don't see anything bad today. Not even a traffic jam like it used to be. In a bad day (not necessary bad weather), there would be a long line up just to get out of the parking lot from work.

Oh right, there aren't any other cars on the road right? sorry forgot about that, thanks for reminding me it's just me on the road at 6PM.

680 News on the 1's and I look outside and see what I have to deal with. I deal with worse having to work outside alot on ladders, so I'm used to it. And I just adjust my driving to meet weather conditions. On a day like this I'll drive a bit slower since the weather is not that great.
