I just spent three and a half HOURS in my car to drive freaking 21 miles!!! I think people in MA totaly forgot how to dive in snow!! Trying to leave the city of Worcester, on Park Ave took me one and a half hours to drive about 4 miles... I left at a body shop at 12:55 and had to drive 6 miles to look at one more car, I got home at 6:30pm!!!
(The first trip 6 miles away only took one and a half, but it had just STARTED to snow when I left!)

Well... at least I got a good chance to see how well the new Malibu is in the snow! Not too bad for a car, the traction control works pretty good to be honest.

Now if you lived in the land of Oz tou would only have 21 kilometres to drive which is about3/5 the distance in miles. Your frustration would have been nearly halved.[:D][:D][}:)]
 
Shannon... now I know why freeway shootings are so common out there! To be honest, people were taking it pretty well other than the morons "filling the box" at the intersections and locking everybody in!

George, now, now. You know that the folks here in Toronto only need 3 months to remember how to drive in snow. As such it would be appreciated if you retained all that lovely 'white' stuff and keep it all in <s>"Winterpeg"</s> Winnipeg[;)] Keep warm

That's EXACTLY why it took so darned long. They were DIVING instead of DRIVING......[:p][B)] (Cav must be snowed under........[;)] )
 
You folks in the rest of the country do not know how lucky you are... on a NORMAL Day in the Bay area it can take over 2 hours to drive 50 Miles. I take the BART Train for my 49 mile Coummute to SFO Airport. It take 1 hour and 20 minmin once I get to the station. If I drive a more direct route it takes me almost 90 min to make the same trip. If it is a Friday you can count on 2.5 hours if I leave SFO by 315p. if it is raining add at least 30 min more!
