Nancy, That is a moron comment, the snow didn't start until 9:30AM or so. The salt trucks get stuck in the traffic behind or between all of the cars that don't need to be out in the snowstorm. And a large portion of them do not have snow tires and some of them have trouble driving in clear dry weather , let alone in a snow storm. I saw a person trying to drive uphill on Bower Hill Rd in a Mustang GT with South Carolina license plates. He was spinning back in forth in both lanes and wasn't getting anywhere fast. Sports cars have no reason being out in a snow storm tying up traffic.
