I know all about west coast greasy snow. I grew up on the north coast where we had Vancouver type snow but way more of it. Fun to learn to drive in that stuff...
Then there's the times when you realize you really shouldn't be on the road when you see a car sliding sideways down the slope of an onramp with no forward movement. Or your co-worker's truck sliding across the parking lot without him even being in it an hour after he got to work.
