It’s March 16th and spring is just around the corner, but it seems that mother nature isn’t done with winter just yet. We got a nice mini-blizzard just in time for the commute this morning. The snow never really stuck to the roads, but it came so fast and furious that visibility was reduced to near white-out conditions at times. We drove sensibly and made it to work just fine. Unfortunately there were a few others who didn’t…
Snow, slush and sleet that fell across New Castle County this morning caused about 50 minor traffic accidents, state police said.Few of the accidents resulted in injuries, said state police spokesman Lt. Joseph Aviola. Most involved vehicles that had slid off the roadway or into other vehicles, he said.
“It’s been quite a messy morning for us,” Aviola said. “People saw it snowing, but for whatever reason they didn’t take it seriously.”
I think what spokesman Aviola really meant to say was; “It’s been quite a messy morning for us. We live in the northeast and snow is a pretty regular occurrence during the winter time around here. But it seems there are too many stupid assholes out there driving around and about 50 or so of them were on the road this morning and they did exactly what stupid assholes are prone to do – they drove like stupid assholes and got into an accident.”
