Oh, yeah... motor mounts, suspension bushings, coil springs, tires, even... all that stuff will absolutely shatter when you hit bumps and potholes in really cold weather. You didn't know that, Ian? Don't be honking at those people.

You need to slow down, dude.


Seriously, my guess is they may be tiptoeing a bit on the lookout for black ice. They may also be thinking about how they'd rather go slower (and tick faster drivers off) than possibly chance skidding off the side of the road and having to dig themselves out in the cold.

Because they know that nobody is gonna stop to help 'em in the cold.

One more thing... if a faster driver skids off, they shouldn't count on any help from the slower, more careful driver, either. He's just gonna drive past, point, and laugh. Yukyukyukyukyuk.
