Especially at stop signs here.. warm tires melt the snow surface then it freezes right back to glass
When I first got that jeep I went to pickup a buddy at his place. His driveway was a hill....I parked and went inside. I was looking at the jeep through the window and thought wtf is it moving? Oh shit it's moving! So I ran out and just as I got to it....it let go and slid down about 50' pretty fast into a snowbank just missed a tree. It was like a week old :o

I lived a long time in Wisconsin and rust is phenomenal, gaping holes and lower quarters gone and more. But if there’s a lot of vehicle traffic and you live where it’s below freezing the Salts, especially with sand work.

Howeve, if the temps stay under 15*, the Salts are mostly ineffective.

I’ve had rocks come off trucks on the paved roads here and bust windshields and dented a couple hoods. But you know they were on gravel/bedrock roads that are everywhere. I’ve seen them coming at times, made me duck. Sounds like a very close gunshot.
I had one the size of tennis ball come off a flatbed and shoot straight thru my windshield, narrowly missing the kids in the back.
I thought Mr Tang was gonna kill the driver.


Edit:
Let me clarify a little. We're owner/operator of a small trucking/heavy equip co. so we know the gig.

Every driver knows its their job to keep their trucks clear of debris.
This driver was hauling logs and didnt clean the muck off the bed after unloading.

Then he had a flippant attitude because his laziness caused the inevitable.
