As the Temps Drop the Speedometers Should As Well !
I consider this time of year some of the most dangerous on the road. Maybe no snow falling, definitely none holding on Highways. Terperatures may be showing mid to high 30's. Certainly nothing to be concerned about. Wrong !
While road conditions may look to be ok temps most likely have dropped to freezing the night before. A thin sheet of black ice early morning will show itself only as wet pavement, if one sees it at all. While it appeared no injuries or other cars involved at this accident, between Sandpoint and Bonners Ferry, this easily could have been disasterous had there been other cars on the road.
Drive safely and be aware. Just because we think everything is OK does not make it so. Better to be cautious and loose a minute or two driving time than not, and loose so much more. This is a deceptive time of year for driving. Remember that as if your life depends on it...
