There was a red E92 M3 parked in the middle of the road on my way home when there was only an inch or so on the ground lol...poor guy.

It's hilarious how they salted and treated the streets weeks ago and we only got a few flurries, yet this week they didn't do a damn thing to the roads. This was a very wet snow that turned in to lots of ice, probably the reason for the horrible motoring conditions.
you don't pass by lake newport do you
that might have been me
it was actually 3 inches and i had to accelerate earlier to clear some bushes
so when i turned i actually drove up where the plough had pushed the snow
so i was sitting on a small hill of snow
and that's with winter tires!

bigger question is
why was nothing done to clear the roads
i drove from mclean to dc to reston
not single plough till i got to reston
and the ones i saw in reston had their plough up
WTF??
