My neighbor shoveled out his Jeep and driveway. He got up speed coming out of the driveway. He spent the next hour trying to get the jeep back in his driveway.

the roads are snow covered but very passable any front wheel drive or 4WD autos should have no problem. good drivers in rear wheel drive should be ok too.

Just took my front wheel drive chevy cav out...did fine. The roads are snowy, icy, not plowed 100% and full of large mounds but careful driving can do you good.

Those traffic cameras are tricks. The roads are perfectly fine.

Yeah, that's why they're reporting hundreds of abandoned vehicles and telling people to stay home. Roads are fine, sure.

I said 66 was snow covered. I didn't say it was bad. I agree that the roads are fine, as long as you take it easy.

I went out driving this morning before the side streets were plowed at all. 30" in the streets..it was awesome! And I did fine in that.

The roads have been fine all day. The Virginian's driving on them are just as Fu(ked up as they can be. Yankee's like us know how to drive in the snow. It's funny watching all you NVA dumbasses struggle with a little snow.

All roads are fine now. I saw several mini Coopers, two Harleys, a moped, three Lamborghinis and some dude riding a camel all traversing the backroads of Fairfax today.

Everyone must get on the road tomorrow to help with the snow removal efforts.

"I noticed that while I was out today...the plow drivers are either Rednecks or they don't speak English."

The guy that was driving the plow on my street looked like Rahm Emanuel. When I asked if it was ok to start driving on the roads again he called me a retard so I am not sure if it was really him or not.

Main street in Fairfax near WTW was still covered with snow at 3 p.m.

Although GMU is closed tomorrow, can anyone give a heads up on the parking lots?

I need to know in particular about the conditions on University Drive in front of the Field House and the Field House lots themselves.

You might want to get that sticky accelerator issue fixed though, might not be

so good to have problem like that, especially in the snow.
