fog is one of the most dangerous conditions.
people absolutly refuse to beleive that they need to reduce thier speed. patchy fog has resulted in more deaths than any other conditions.
people think because they can see down the road a quarter mile they can drive 65 miles an hour in a forty mile zone. that is how I ended up perminatly disabled.
ticks me off more than it scares me. all I can say they are lucky I am not the officer of the day... I would be burnning through them ticket pads like peperoni on pizza.
Back to the snow thing.
I found out today we lost another neighbor due to the white stuff, he was 60+ shoveling snow during a cold snap and passed on due to heart attac.
I came across his widow today, she was shoveling snow, about 7 inches fell last night. so I was out making sure that our siniors were not out shoveling and exerting themselves.
tip, if you are going to shovel snow, take lots of breaks. only shovel for about 15 minutes at a time. if you have to get out in a hurry, dont go!!! or call some one to come and plow it for you.
that is two neghbors in a month that has passed due to the white stuff.
