poor coping skills
WA snowstorm blamed in deaths, injury
Of course, the trouble is not in the inches, but in the utter inability of this hilly and temperate region to cope with even tiny amounts of snow.
indeed! of course, the article goes on to blame the DOT folks. i'm not sure about that, but i do know that motorists here seem to be morons. now, you don't have to be some excellent snow driver. i certainly have little experience. but any reasonable person would at least change his or her driving habits. not around here. i saw people driving like it was dry, tail-gaiting and speeding. i rode my bike to and from work and had a blast.
