People that don't understand that my little car does not take off immediately on snow & ice. I have a 2000 Mazda Protege, and while it is a good little car, it really does not like to get going when there is a hint of snow or ice on the roads. The tires spin, it goes nowhere, and I pray that it will somehow get an ounce of traction so it moves in a forward direction. People don't seem to understand this. I was making a turn a few days ago, and I admit it, I was going totally slow, but I could not get traction. The car behind me was beeping and doing the hand "what the F are you doing" wave. Ugh. Embarrassingly, I got a bit of road rage after that episode and followed too closely down the highway (I ended up following all the way from Plymouth to St. Michael on that one!). I try not to do road rage-y things with my l'il fish symbol on the back of my car, it just doesn't show a good example. That fish has saved me a few really dumb moves.
Anyway, people, be patient! I am going, I know that I am not going, I am trying to get going, just give me time!
