Anyone notice the # of car accidents going up since we got that freezing rain the other day ?

Man, I live on a main street and every hour or so a ambulance or fire truck or cop car will go ripping by with the sirens going starting around 5AM and dying off late evening till 2AM.... [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

Seriously... its been like 6 times today and its not even 2pm and we didnt even get much snow last night... [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

Oh ya.. I thought it was funny (although it not really) but I saw a line up of probably eight or ten tow trucks with cars at the cop shop waiting to be assesed for damage and fault... [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img]

It wasnt this bad when winter first hit !!!

Landsdowne was lethal this morning Haunz. I almost got his a couple times. The worse it gets, the stupider people become on the road.

Heh.. the best was watching cars slide down a hill into each other after some freezing rain... backwords, forwards, sideways... lol...

I was on foot but decided to keep moving after someone jumped the curb a few feet away from where I was standing...

that would have whiped the smirk off my face.. lol...
