Okay, we're going to get this out of the way really quick. I don't care if you have 4WD, 6WD, or freaking tank treads on your car; if your car isn't physically in contact with the ground then you're not going to be in control of the vehicle. To those of you driving Civics, Camaros, Mustangs, Corvettes, (insert other two wheel drive cars) if there's ice on the ground you don't need to be driving 50 mph. I don't care what the sign says, there's ice on the ground and visibility is absolute shit.
Maybe pattern recognition is a trait that isn't common in adults, but don't worry. I'm here to help you out. You ever notice that even though it's 30 degrees outside, the snow and ice that occupy the ground tends to melt anyway, but overpasses and bridges tend to be icy? That's called a pattern. It has to do with the ground retaining some heat and melting the ice immediately above it, and there is no ground under an overpass/bridge so that water freezes and stays that way. So maybe, I dunno, don't go roaring onto an overpass at 65 mph while changing lanes and texting. You'll deserve what happens to you at that point.
