Driving in Snow

Published by Pat Mullaly at 2:00 pm under Staying Healthy

Here in New England we have to deal with driving in the snow. And this winter morning is no exception. I headed out early, just after the snow began to fall. No traffic, no snowplows yet, no sanding. The most dangerous time to drive. With just the first 1/4″ of the white stuff on the ground, there was nothing but “slick” for my tires to grab. I spun out three times before deciding to head home and stay safe.

Going slow and steady is one way to deal with slick roadways. It may annoy the people following along behind, but it’s important to not let that get to you. Being careful saves both your life and theirs. Spinning out only brings disaster, not to mention the heart in your throat as you totally lose control.

A metaphor for life!
