Default Wow, compared to other places I've lived (NYC area, Phoenix), my experience has been the polar
opposite of yours.

What part of SLC are you in?

Default I lived in Utah for 20 years - I honestly think CO drivers are worse in snow...
Its been four years since I moved to CO, so maybe things have changed, but I still the drivers here are worse in the snow.

Actually, I would have to say I think the storms here mess of the roads quicker and more often. It seems here that the roads turn to ice with the slightest dusting, wearas in Utah it seems to need a little more power to the storm to really mess the roads up.

Maybe some road expert could tell me why?

BTW, I love this discussion: "We suck more!" "No, we suck more!"

Default I only saw one disabled car, a tacoma sized truck that went off roading on I-215 by 45thS
But it was horrible in that so few roads were plowed by 8:45am. The sun was shining, but all I could tell was that they sanded the roads.

Default Sorry to disappoint, but we were smart enough to put on snows. :-)
I'm also conscious enough to have chains for my truck if warranted and know how to use them.

Default WI is FL compared to MN
Time to get this discussion on the right track (e.g. 'you svck,' instead of 'I svck.')
