The main reason not to drive in the snow is the way other people drive in the snow.

    Yesterday, on a 65mph limit highway that had been completely cleared of snow and ice (there was zero black ice) I encountered multiple cars going 55mph or slower. In one case about 35. I don’t understand.

      Do you know there is zero black ice before you hit the road? Do you know the condition of their tires? Did they have winter tires or summer tires? Are they good drivers or inexperienced?

      Lots of reasons different cars would want to go slow. So long as they stay to the right, whatever.
