Some people just can't drive on snow and ice!

You wouldn't recognise a troll if it spat in your face.

Congrats on this accomplishment. I remember the first time I saw the dreaded "black ice" on the road so many years ago.

"What's that up ahead?" "'It's black ice!" "Ahhha!"

By the time I reached it, I had figured out what to do: absolutely nothing. :)

Fake post! You can't see black ice driving down the road.

Pshaw. It can be hard to spot sometimes, but other times it is quite
obvious. It usually depends on the road and lighting conditions. I was
driving to an appointment today and was on a winding country road. As I
approached a curve I spotted a gleam on the road surface and slowed
down. Up ahead was a lot worse. There had been some flooding and
freezing over night so there was a stretch of very bumpy ice.

I don't know how to respond to that.

The water in your body is just visiting. It was a thunderstorm a week ago. It will
be the ocean soon enough. Most of your cells come and go like morning dew. We
are more weather pattern than stone monument. Sunlight on mist. Summer
lightning. Your choices outweigh your substance...

The road I was driving on was a nicely paved, wide, road. At the time it had a whitish cast to the surface. I interpreted this as a light coating of frost on the road. Interesting stuff to this Hawaiian! I A patch of frozen water in a slight depression in the road up ahead was quite easy to spot. It was literally a dark, glassy, spot on the road.
My guess is that a lot of people that drive have no skills at all in recognizing road conditions. That's the breaks.

[itsjoan...@webtv.net]

I still don't believe you. I also fixed your word-wrap.

It may be less of a problem up here because we are used to the risk of
"black ice" from October through to April every year. Most of us learn
to slow down, and those who don't are the ones that end up crashing.

[dsi1]

That's fine if you don't believe me. Thank's for reworking my work. Please continue your fine works. Highly commendable! :)

This was in Washington state - where they don't get a lot of snow. It was quite novel though, to drive on a frozen road. The frost covered road was slippery, but not that slippery. I was happy about that.
When we were in Washington a few years ago, there was a snow storm of sorts. This freaked out the locals. My son did the driving and he drove like a pro. I like that arrangement - I'm too old to be driving in snow. :)

In Hawaii, when rain sprinkles on your head, you can be sure that
it was urine pissed out from some tourist from the mainland a day
or two before.

Probably invisible during daylight hours but...
You can see it coming if driving in the dark early mornings with
headlights on.
It's darker than dry pavement (hence the name, black ice).
Looks like wet pavement but with very cold temps, you know it's ice and
not just wet.
