Yeah, its different down here. idiots don't know how to prep rds and then idiots don't know how to drive in it. after watching people try to get up a steep hill is seen a lot. one poor lady tried it backwards. it was funny but she made it.

yeah it is different down here. People don't slow down or quit texting and driving with the added conditions. There was a 25 car pile up ( which is minor compared to other places) and Richmond county schools have been closed since Tuesday. Hell my wifes work delayed her til 1130 this morning for road conditions and there is nothing left on the ground. Good old Augusta

It took me an hour and a half to get 20 miles to Villa Rica, back roads, side roads, main road, driveways, parking lots, the grass on the side of the road...

Everyone was just sitting in a line waiting on the fools that were stuck to move. No one thought to drive on the frozen grass right next to them.

Good times. I hope we get some more snow.

Justin

took me 17hours to get home from North Atlanta(Ashford dunwoody) to south douglasville.

The ole 68 was parked but my little commuter car prius worked like a champ never had any issues once I got out of traffic. I even did a little offroading (in the woods, not just grass...)to get off the interstate at hwy 41 and 285.
