Quick One for Monday Morning

Okay. Note to Midwestern Drivers:

The POINT of snow plows and of salting the roads GENEROUSLY is to make those roads NOT SLIPPERY. This means that when you are driving on those roads the morning after they've been salted and plowed, you don't have to drive 20 miles per hour, as if the roads are slippery. BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT. Even if there's still snow on the ground by the side of the road.

See how this works?

Also, Midwestern State Government? Please do what they did in New York and make it illegal to talk on a cell phone while driving 85 on the interstate. Or driving along city streets with an intricate pattern of traffic signals.

Thank you.
