good idea turning back, my Daily is a Safari Van, and I almost lost it today on what is normally a 5 minute drive. took my well over 20 minutes, lol. let me know when you're planning on doing it again. I'm about 1 hour outside of T.O. in Port Hope/ Cobourg, whichever, lol.

You got that right. Its too bad the last owner of my rover decided to equip it with ski's instead of shoes. It can get pretty interesting when the ice hits.

Its amazing how crazy people drive without a clue to the conditions. The other day we had about an inch of snow and there were 20 accidents on the freeway, some of which happened right in front of my eyes. Most were just cars going into the ditch or barrier.

How come YOU weren't in the right lane if you were not passing anyone? And next time dial *opp on your cell phone to report any of those dangerous "Street Racers".
