I hadn't thought about this road hazard...

 

From American Truckers on X.com, we learn this.  Click the image for a larger, readable view.



I don't regularly drive on ice and snow (thank you, Texas weather!), but from my (very) limited exposure to it, I know I don't do well under those driving conditions.  I'd never considered the hazards of commercial vehicles, particularly 18-wheeler truck/trailer combinations, when their drivers have the same problem.  Now that drivers can come in from Mexico (where snow isn't exactly commonplace, to put it mildly) and drive all the way to the US/Canadian border or even further north, I can see that would make for . . . interesting times on the highway.

How about you, readers?  Have any of you run into this problem (hopefully not literally!)?  If so, please tell us about it in Comments.  It might help keep all of us safer on the road.
