Ouch! The problem that many people have is they are not used to driving in ice and snow, and they aren't careful enough. Two weekends in a row, we have had snow. This last time I think we had about 6 inches. I'm glad that the road crew did a much bettet job this time. The roads are so clean, you could eat off them (and you wouldn't have to worry about adding salt to your food either).

What was the other truck that collided with the Explorer? How often do you get snow and ice in Texas?

The Texas panhandle gets is all the time but central Texas only gets it every 4-5 years for a few days.

Because of the moisture coming from the Pacific Ocean via Mexico, we got sleet, snow, and rain in a 4 hour period.

The rest of the time it was raining and freezing up. We had rain for 10 days straight and the sun finally came out today
but we expect more on Tuesday and Wednesday.

They use sand here for the roads.

I believe the other was an Ford F150 wrapped around a tree.

Whoa! It sounds like someone was in a bigger hurry than the conditions allowed for him or her to have. In these conditions you just have to be careful.
