Hey, just want to warn the NJ people that the roads today are pretty slippery. I wasnt having a problem, but i was driving next to some lady on an on ramp, and i figured it might be slippery, so i slowed up, she didnt, and swerved right into the lane where i would have been and started fishtailing and spun all the way around. Good thing i kind of saw it coming and decided to slow up!! Just be carefull out there, not only from the ice and water, but that salt is slippery too!

or as CT from road rules/real world challange says "its wicked haaad and wicked slippery"

backroads of morristown..eh. After coming up the steepest, curviest road i've driven on(bally hollow) the car was perfect cause I put my blizzaks on last night. After the peak, there was a sheet of ice. There were 3 accidents there before me and I was almost in the 4th. A jeep cherokee was behind pretty far, but on ice he started creaping up real quick. Luckily I saw him moved to the oncoming side(no traffic), stopped, and he passed right by. I talked to him after cause we were behind eachother in a stopped line of detoured traffic and he said that he would have smashed me if I didn't move. Thank god he didn't or that would have been the end.

For the most part the roads are fine, but the backroads are not great. By now everything should be clear.
