Somebody want to help me get into the sno-cone business?

Snow. Its pretty and its got adorable crystals and its magical in the movies and kids love to slide down it and scoop the stuff up into snowmen. Snow fell and snow fell today. Over 6 inches at least. Roommate barely got us off our road and onto the larger road but she got the job done. I called hubby at his workplace. He said he could leave half an hour early so that helped. One road near his workplace was covered with snow enough that roommate could not see where the street curb was or where the dividing lanes were. At an intersection on the highway our light turned green. Of course roommate put her foot on the gas and we moved forward. A large white sedan from our side- the side that had a RED light- started up slowly and cruised through the intersection. I yelled and roommate said oh! She'd reacted to the green light but not to the bozo who was dancing his car through a red light on a major highway. Tomorrow morning we expect the delight of freezing rain. Hubby expects to stay home. Go hubby!

Bozo's given driver's license is stupid. As far as the snow cone business goes--- I think that after the snow is purified for commercial use it won't be snow any more.

I can't imagine people running red lights when the roads are so treacherous.

@JudyEv The car did not even have its lights on. Like a nightmare.

@sallypup Are you sure it wasn't a dream? Or rather a nightmare?

@JudyEv Unfortunately it was real and the car was built like a tank.

That is good that your husband can stay home tomorrow. I have always hated driving in the snow.

@jstory07 There is a strong probability of freezing rain and a coating of ice on the roads. He told his boss it just is not safe. Not one bit.

Yeah, some people really have no sense, and unfortunately you have to look out for them too. Yesterday a car drifted halfway into my lane, but I was watching him so there was no issue. Then there's snow - where you just can't react or stop as quickly.
