The road was like ice…

"The Road was like ice..." "That's just it!" says the Constable. "As though the roads weren't dangerous enough already, you get a sudden severe frost. Yet people go hurrying along as usual. They'd rather take a chance than lose a minute. The result is—well, you can see that for yourself." ¶ Go very, very carefully when roads are wet or icy—whether you are walking, cycling or driving. Bad weather conditions always send the accident curve up with a rush. But twice the care taken would mean half the casualties.
