It's freezing rain, thawing, freezing on the highway in northern Ontario ... stay at home!
(lemmy.ca)
The highways are literal ice, either thawing, freezing or going to become ice later tonight and people all over facebook, messenger, whatsapp, whatever are all messaging each other and me and my family asking what the highways are like today and if they can safely go out. People are dying on the highways this week all over the north. Stay at home.
The safest thing to do is just don't go on the highway when it is raining in December in northern Ontario!!!
I saw someone drive right through a police roadblock for a movie shoot where the scene was a transport truck flying through a red light. Cop jumped out of the car and ran after them to get them to stop.
I used to live next to a bridge that was taken apart to get renovated. Three cars crashed into the barriers that said “Bridge is closed", one car per night until Police put up extra barriers.
