Will Someone Tell Me Why??????

Winter has finally come to Minnesota. We are in the midst of our first true snow storm.

If you listen to the radio or television, you will hear of this car accident here, and another one there. What I don't understand is this--if you've been living in Minnesota for any amount of time, then you realize that come November, December-ish, we're going to get snow. And if you're of driving age, then you've driven in the snow more than once. So WHY haven't you learned to drive correctly in the snow???

I just don't understand why there are so many accidents EVERY year with the first snow storm. Nothing has changed except that you have gotten older and supposedly wiser, yet, with the first snow storm there are countless accidents.

Last year with the first snow storm there were over 200 accidents. I'm beginning to think that people drive the same way and expect a different outcome.

It baffles me. That's all I have to say about that.
