True, but I do still get pissed at the ones who have so little confidence in their abilities to get from A to B in the snow/ice and won't make it possible for those of us who don't suck to get around.

OK, if they are using more than one lane or not using turnouts, then you can get pissed at them.

My coworker Jason was in his car w/ his GF driving down to Carson... bad donkey sighting on 395. Unfortunately, his GF hurt her back... Jason hurt his wrist... but they should both recover.

Yeah, he had _multiple_ turnout opportunities, nice big wide ones, and there were literally 30 cars behind him, from the top of Echo, to the last passing zone before the 4 lane section...

Went out for a drive today. I think the snow donkey has been contained. In the following video, you can see that you can't keep the snow donkey down for long.

I don't think it was the donkey's ass they were blurring.

I figured as much... but the comedy implications of TV shows starting to blur out naked animals is hysterical.
