Try driving a fire truck with 1,000 gallons of water on that shit or in a white out. It does not exactly stop on a dime. Yeah, I know it is not a fully loaded 18 wheeler, but back then we still had firemen on the back of the truck (all wheel drive, 10....with chains). I was told to never put the firemen at risk. People stupid enough to get in the way took second place behind the firemen. Never came to that thankfully. People do really stupid things in heavy snow and white outs.......like stopping in the road because the shoulder is waist deep in snow. Adding the trucker who does not slow down into the mix makes for a really bad night for those that have to clean up the bodies.
Listen to your asshole. There in a direct relationship between the degree of pucker and how much you should slow down.
Glad you are safe. Did you go through Mexican Hat or Blanding?
