Good news for body shop operators and anyone who makes a buck from trips to the emergency room more snow is expected.
Even better news you can count on some people failing to take seriously the dangers inherent whenever you mix icy surfaces with machines weighing thousands of pounds.

Slow down, be careful. Please.
