Exclamation Terrible Driving condition in sauga!
If you are still at work...try your best to leave early.

I was heading west from Eglington & Dixie to Mavis, the roads were extremely slippery, saw few cars spun out even though they were travelling @below 20km/h.

I started in 2nd gear with my new winters on but still going sideway a bit!

Drive carefully my friends!

BTW, my driveway has almost a feet of snow already...I am talking about only 3.5 hours!

regards,
Mugen C

It's insane, funny thing is in north york there is not a single snow flake, so coming back to mississauga was a damn shock.

higher ratio..
less chance of spinning the tires..

south end of 'sauga was alright coming home..once i got the overly paranoid out of the way i was easily doing the rated limits..

I'm looking out my office, and it's been blowing snow all day here like a mother, but there's really isn't much at all sitting on top of my car.
