Snow Driving in NJ.

We took a 800 mile road trip during the Christmas weekend. Unfortunately, the snow followed us all the way from western Pennsylvania to the eastern Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey.

We saw many cars that wrecked in the often times icy and snowy conditions - but I couldn't help but notice that the preponderance of wrecks involved luxury cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks driving too quickly on the left lane. The only exception was an elderly man who managed to overturn 1980s clunker. He seemed ok, he was standing at the scene of the accident with a neck brace.

Our car, which has relatively narrow all-season tires, handled like a champ in the snow.

 12/26 - Approximately two feet of snow + drift
causedby 40mph gusts.

12/27 - After about an hour of digging.

The fruits of snow removal! Beef Udon @ Mitsuwa. Yum!
