I can drive through any winter driving conditions. Since I live out in the country I see all sorts of road conditions. Depending on the weather I can change my driving route.
For instance one of the roads has many farm fields so if windy I know (and have driven) not to choose that route as their will be icy spots. But the route I usually take has some curves so I just go slower. I don't have to take the hwy to get to work once I've driven that far I can go through town.

I think driven at early evening with the snow coming the directions of your windshield isthe worse vs road conditions. Its kind of hypnotic.

I think I would rather drive in alot of snow than just a few inches.

A week before Christmas I took an exit ramp off to pick up a Christmas tree and when I made a right turn with the truck I hit black ice. I only did like a 90 with the truck but its so automatic to steer out of a spin I corrected right away. But my heart was beating a bit fast for a few minutes.
