I've driven in nasty snow, but usually on the way home. If too bad, I'd
stay home. I learned my lesson many years ago on an icy day. Minor
accident, but enough to realize work is not that important.

When I see on the news about a 50 car pileup, I have to wonder if 49 of
them could have just stayed home.
