why cant americans into winter driving?

>American women


FTFY

I would bet my next paycheck on a woman causing this 40 car pileup

I once had to drive from our tech center in Auburn Hills back to the local office in Chicago in January. I took the north route around Lansing thinking it would be in better shape. Boy was I wrong! That stretch west of Lansing gets fucked with lake effect and ice and just turns into a total shit storm. I was sliding all over the road trying to do 40mph in my Subaru. Then I got stuck in a jam at Kalamazoo after some knucklehead caused a pileup. And then when I got near Indiana all the overpasses were iced and windy, so the car would step out over every bridge.

The trip took me 9 hours. It fucking sucked balls.

I don't like going slow

>>16292094
ausfags cant even into rain/wet/flood driving because like clockwork every time they all crash their cars

>>16292103
Which is odd, since they all drive AWD SUVs.

>>16292262
Women think AWD means somehow they have different or more advanced braking then cars with 2wd.

I'm not joking. My sister in law actually believes this. I didn't bother to correct her lol

from the article

>the most terrifying sounds I’ve ever heard" as a tractor-trailer's tires skidded on the ice behind her. She had nowhere to go because traffic was at a standstill.

>"Fortunately, he was able to stop before plowing into me," reporter Kathleen Gray said, noting that "it probably took about an hour to get through the accident scene. Traffic was able to pull around the jackknifed tractor-trailer on the shoulder of the freeway."
>SO TRAUMATIZING, I ALMOST GOT IN AN ACCIDENT BUT DIDN'T AT ALL

kek, the snow isn't even stuck to the road!!

Its deplorable how bad drivers can be when the weather gets shitty. I have been through 4 winters in my underpowered rwd 245 with an open diff with out any issues. People need to git gud.

It wasn't. But Michigan drivers drive like assholes and tailgate

>>16292682
oops.

Pic related. This was how much snow was on the ground that caused a 40 car pileup

>>16292094

Because rubber doesn't do good on ice, period. Combine that with impatient assholes and this shit happens.

>>16292094
Because amerilards are fooled into a false sense of confidence by muh 4wd and muh SUV, thinking it's good in winter yet are also too cheap for good snow tyres and don't have any winter driving education.
