Travellers on new Port Mann bridge are dodging chunks of ice falling from cables above. Some hoods dented, windshields cracked.

Fuck all these stalled semis and cars that are stuck because they're too cheap to get winter tires

I saw a 3-series this morning that couldn't get off the line on a flat road. No one else was having that kind of trouble.

AWD + winter tires FTW.

^Heard on 1040 that James Lepp's driver side mirror got taken out on the Port Mann... :suspicious:

Seen on Facebook: "Vancouver snow: It's like you're standing ankle deep in a giant cup of dirt-flavoured Slurpee."

Was following a 90's c-class watching the guy skid around :lol

Drove our old es300 and there weren't too many problems, though there was this one spot I had a hard time starting at the hill around Eric hamber going up oak.
