Passing with ice and snow in the road is dangerous. The risk isn’t worth saving a few seconds on your commute. For most people anyway. Some people would risk their newborn to shave a few seconds off their drive.

That makes sense!!
Thank you
Edit: tagging onto top comment, I’ve only seen this in Vermont! People in NY and Montana usually just pass.
Somethings aren’t as obvious to other people, no need to be mean!
We are all constantly learning :)
And I have learned this is a smarter and safer way to drive!
Thank you!

Cleared snow by the vehicle in front of you allowing for relatively more safe driving in their tire tracks. And if everyone is driving safely, there's no need to pass.

I moved to Vermont to escape the crime, higher taxes, too many people in CT.

I am the passenger, and we are driving for the conditions if you mention speed.

If only anybody who argues policy from the position of self-identified "common sense" had any.

Adidas Terrex Free Hiker. They are amazing. Waterproof and so comfortable. I wear them fall through spring.

And it seems like "socially liberal" means you have the common sense of a Peter Pan type that never grew up.

I hate that you said the quite part out loud! It's true. The less that know, the better in my opinion

To your #2, that's just it. Most Vermonters are kind, not nice.

If you were to try and pass someone you will most likely slide off the road. The mere fact of turning to get in another lane will cause your tires to slide.
If you stay in the path of tire marks you are less likely to hydroplane.
