Just because the road is iced and hasn't been cindered or salted and it's near white-out conditions does not mean we have to forfeit our god-given right to drive the posted speed limit. Jeez what a buncha weenies.

True dat! I was in my Suburban on the way to the hospital this morning to pick up my wife, following two ConnDOT plow trucks doing 50 on I-91, and we all got passed on the right by some DB in an Accord who just couldn't wait. Sliding and wagging his rear in the snow/slush combination cast off by the plows. I was really hoping that he'd eat the Jersey barrier. I'm sure he made it to his destination, pissing off and endangering many more folks along his way.
