In minnesota, where it used to be regularly too cold for salt to really do much, they would just put sand down. Worked fine for in town.

That's what a lot of places used to do . . . . back when people were expected to know how to drive in all weather conditions. Now salt is the "miracle cure". Reduces accidents since so few drivers actually know how to judge tire grip. Or worse, how to control their cars if they get out of line -- so Stability Control to the rescue.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) there is a limit to that electronic stuff. as the evidence shows down here. roll over stats have gone through the roof in recent years. SUV drivers armed with ABS, ESC, etc have little or no sense anymore of vehicle limits? mobile ortho shoes with high centres of gravity get into situations where the electronics hand off control back to driver, "i give up, good luck, see you when its all over". |
