Yeah, fire protection. You’d think there would be some general public consideration about this, ideally. Firetrucks are not flying unicorns. Though they should be able to negotiate road snow.

Maybe they don’t even care unless you get stuck and need a tow. Even though they could care. Just keep the roads running, seems to be the unspoken rule.

If the retards just died on their own, that`d be ok, but they block the roads and prevent the prompt clearing. Well here`s a solution, during such an emergency, all tort claims for damage to private vehicles stuck in such a blizzard are hereby negated, declared null and void. You go out and get stuck, it gets removed as efficiently as possible, if that means a wrecker with scrap claw to toss it off into the ditch, so be it.

Stopped reading after the first sentence. If the idiot author doesn't know what martial law is there is not much point in going any further.

I think the reason is that the Turnpike doesn’t have a chain law like states out west. 18 wheelers couldn’t pull the west bound grade up to the Allegheny Mtn. Tunnel. Gridlock.

The problems are a little different here. If a car gets stuck and an ambulance can’t get through, a life could be lost, just because someone couldn’t stay home.

I was just out. Everyone walking in the street and an SUV comes by. But I figured it could have been something important.

If they are on the road to arrest you, why are they not arrested too? Re: Equal protection under the law? They could be placing their lives in jeopardy if armed citizens place them under arrest. As they should.

Incrementally testing martial law?

There’s usually a siren a minute. Not now. Maybe because people can’t get into trouble if they’re all home.

That could be. I've driven that stretch hundreds of times. What I don't understand is the trucks are restricted from driving in the passing lane there. One of the pictures I saw were two semis blocking the entrance to the tunnel. Someone is going to get a very big ticket.

I am amazed by the government today ruling that you must not do this and that.
Back in the 1960’s, when I was in high school, if we had a snow day we jumped into a car to drive up the mountain to ski.
