Around here, they put the chemicals down and forget about the roads for a while. It's like they forgot there was a plow blade on the front of the trucks. More often than not, we are driving in 3-4 inches of slush. It really throws you around. I wish they would go back to simply plowing the roads first, and then throw down some sand/cinders for a little traction around the intersections. I have no problem hauling bootie on snow/ice covered roads as long as they are plowed. It's that darned slush that I don't like.
