I did broom and ice scrape. I live on top of a mountain and it’s not usually 40° when I leave for work around 6. Usually a bit colder and snowier. Accidents happen. Mine happened an hour before the store open and I handled it immediately.
Obviously the rockstar comment was sarcastic. Snow happens. Glad you handle every situation perfectly and never wind up in an unexpected situation with Mother Nature. Congratulations

Why are you being so very sensitive? I put a laugh emoji - its not that serious.
I’m not the OP - I posted a picture of a truck that I saw in 40 degree weather the day after a storm. Absolutely no precipitation at all. I really don’t understand what your issue is about said truck or the car OP posted unless it was of course you in one of the photos.
Snow does indeed happen and as someone who lives in a state that snows (maine) and has driving privileges (a license) and has access to a vehicle to drive (maybe you even own it?!) then said person should know how to responsibly use the vehicle in all weather conditions wether predicted or not.
If your wipers broke and it’s snowing or other precipitation is coming down such as rain then you don’t drive your car. Period. Call a friend, a family member, walk or pay for some form of transportation to get yourself to where you need to go.
As a parent and a human who cares for the safety of others it’s a huge risk for yourself and everyone on the road around you when you can’t see. This is why side mirror and rear view mirrors and now cameras are on vehicles - snow all over your vehicle blocks sight and when covering lights either dims or makes them almost non existent. Snow and ice already slow response times. If someone slams on breaks due to chucks of snow and ice coming at their windshield again it can cause accidents.
Ask for help when you need it if you can’t reach the top of your vehicle to get mounds of snow off. Buy the correct tools to assist you in clearing off your own vehicle regardless of mechanical failure - you have to be somewhat prepared for this. I never said I was perfect but I do know how to use my resources and am responsible.
You’re doing just fine in life and I’m very proud of your attempts to clear off your vehicle.
Sincerely, The Person Who’s Neck Was Broken In an Auto Accident And Prefers/encourages others to not. Clean off your fucking cars or don’t fucking drive. Your not cool cause you can see out a crack. That’s not a skill.

I can see by your novel that it’s not that serious.

I can also see that you got triggered by a lot of the assumptions you made about the entire situation that “wasn’t that serious”

LOL are you ok?
I don’t think we are reading or on the same thread. You seemed butthurt. I only wanted to further ensure your safety. This being your mental. You went into detail about living on a mountain. I like to chat and type and you took the time to read the whole thing so it musta been a good story.
