Shitty weather conditions is not when you decide to pass.

Is that true - lowest premiums?

No, it actually doesn't? Being able to gently pass on the highway doesn't mean it's a great idea, or that you can't slide out even in the traveled lane.

It was seriously coming down this morning! I could barely see my hand in front of my face while I was walking my dogs.

Did you take a picture during a snowstorm of people driving slowly wondering why they're not driving faster?

All of the cars in the bank along the highway every time icy and wintery road conditions are present disagree with you.

That’s a different level of saturation than we are used to seeing in VT photos.

Driving to work the other day when it was snowing I saw multiple people hop into the left lane to pass, sit there for 1-3 seconds, then merge right back in where they were. It was funny to watch

When did I say there had never been a snow accident on the highway? I'm just pointing out it's possible to ease into the other lane and slowly cruise past people on the highway, and there's not going to be the need to slam on the brakes and hop back into the lane for your direction.

Snowy roads aren’t a phenomenon unique to Vermont, but having the lowest auto insurance premiums is.
I wonder why that is. 😉

Seriously, often the lanes are NOT at all equally safe. You feel like everyone is going too slowly and you want to pass, but that left lane is much more snowy/slushy than the right. Suddenly you're hanging out there needing to speed up quite a bit and pass everyone, but realize that it doesn't feel as safe as it would in the right lane. Pair that with a sweeping right turn and you're suddenly white knuckled, trying not to fly off into the median. Worth it to save a minute or two?
