Timing is everything!

In my last post I mentioned that everyone should get prepared for winter... Well, it is abundantly clear to me that many did not read and or heed that admontion!

This past Saturday, here in the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area we had a little bit of snow! It's important that you catch the drift (pun intended) that there was only a LITTLE bit of snow. The wind blew fiercely and absolutely none of the county road crews had any idea that they needed to be out spreading some salt... but they should have!

By the time I had to go home from work, (Yes, I work on the weekends!) what normally takes me 30 minutes in travel time took me 90 minutes. It would have taken longer if I had not gotten off the clogged interstate highway that saw traffic lumbering along at a brisk 5 miles per hour pace! The back roads were somewhat slippery but with reduced traffic I could at least follow the slower folks who were at least doing 30 MPH!

The problems? Bald tires and defective wipers... and of course, people following too close and talking on cell phones instead of paying attention to where they SHOULD have been driving... and there were a LOT of accidents! Many of them were multiple car accidents which reduced the travel lanes severely!

This was just a warning snow! Less than ONE inch of it! And traffic almost came to a stand-still.

How long are YOU going to wait to get YOUR new Tires and Wiper Blades? How about your Turn Signals, Brake Lights and Headlights? Do they all work properly? Get them fixed promptly and save both you and someone you don't want to meet some major expense with an accident you can avoid!
