Why does this country come to a standstill when it snows?

People can't drive when it rains. God help us when it snows. Best option: close all businesses except the liquor stores and arrest anyone crazy enough to try to drive. ;-)

Answer 2

The simplist answer is we have lost the skills of driving in snow.With global warning snow is becoming a lot less servere just 20-25yrs ago it used to really snow and was impassable in many places now we 5 inches of snow and the country becomes gridlocked.

Answer 3

The same reason why trains come to a standstill when leaves fall.

Strange isn't it? Leaves fall at roughly the same time of year every year and the train companies still can't get over it. It gets cold at roughly the same time of year every year and all hell still breaks loose when it happens.
