    You know the old trope about how people in the South can’t drive in snow? We do donuts on the roads unintentionally once the snow falls and refreezes to ice. No lake needed. I guess if you only have snow on the roads you have to seek out places where the car will slide around.

      In the PNW, we don’t get a lot of snow and it doesn’t get cold enough to freeze lakes, but we do get plenty of black ice. Rain + tons of shade under evergreen trees can cause a lot of issues.
