My bus slid sideways under I-5 exiting to Northgate (the 41). It was quite the thing.

I think one not only has to turn into the skid, but turn out of it when one is finished rotating. And book lernin' doesn't quite cut it for these things . . .

Few things in this world make me happier than watching a city crippled by an inch of snow :-) ...Never considered Seattle one of those cities, but Atlanta is always fun to watch...

One thing that continues to appall me is how little people on this side know about driving in snow and ice. I don't know about Seattle, but it happens here in Eugene every year, even if only for a week or so total, and yet people still freak out. I love to watch thier eyes get big as I tell them stories about commuting to the South Hill in Spokane in winter....

All week I haven't been seeing people who needed to be reminded to turn into the skid so much as people who needed to be instructed that pressing harder on gas pedal does not equal more and better traction.
