Hazardous travel alerts were posted  this morning due to slick and icy roads. That will likely continue off and on as the snow and cold continues – especially on highway overpasses and interchanges. And so begins our Winter travel woes in Michigan. Annual misery that some people simply fail to accept and continue to travel at excessive speeds – thereby causing accidents in their wake where ever they go. It’s infuriating each and every year that some folks won’t – or can’t – adjust their brain to a changing weather conditions. Actually, when you get right down to it, even in summer weather with rain,fog, etc. conditions, it all comes down to speed being the killer. There are people who just should not be allowed behind a moving vehicle wheel.
