Driving In The Snow!

Now days it is inevitable, you need to drive to get places, but it's totally different when there is snow on the ground.
Living in Wisconsin my hole life, you would think I would be able to tolerate driving in the snow, but I don't. I refuse driving in the snow, ever since my accident. My accident happened last year when I was driving to school. I had my twin brother and my little sister in the back seat. We ended up doing a 360 degree spin before going down into a huge drop off. The car tumbled down the hill and I was left shitting my pants, worrying about my families safety. The car took on a lot of damage to it. And because of this accident, I was not looking forward to driving in snow anytime soon.
These days I have had a different approach to the hole deal of driving in snow. I say if there is enough snow on the ground to cover up the roads, I won't drive. I now will need a ride from somebody to get to the place where I need to be, or I just won't go. To me, after that accident, I don't ever want to be responsible for driving in those kinds of conditions with my families lives in jeopardy. Some people call me stupid and dumb for resulting to this kind of matter, but the way I see it is they must never have gotten in an accident like mine, with family members involved. If this would happen to the people talking trash to me, maybe they would understand.

I absolutely hate driving in the snow. I drove into the ditch once when I only had my temps and I thought that was scarry. Also the fact that almost everyone else drive pretty careless during bad weather doesn't help either.

I agree I hate driving in the snow and I work everynight so I pretty much have to, but I'm that one girl driving like 25 in the 55. HE HE! Last year I lost a friend in a car accident, becuse of the snow and my other friend was almost paralized for the rest of her life. I have been in 3 car accidents and I hate them. My friends call me the worst back seat driver, but I just really hate driving in the snow, and car accidents.
