to recap, the underbody of my car scraped at the MONSTER speed bump at collegiate court when i was stock height, so definitley don't go there (I didn't know that speed bump was so infamous, i thought it was just me). I got a kit on my car now so you are not gonna catch me in there. Going to subway is out of the question. If u want a sub that bad do a little walking and park somewhere else near it. And you being a freshman and if you live in a dorm, u r not really gonna drive until the weekend anyways. So you'll be good, drop that badboy.

i agree most accidents in the snow are from people driving too fast for the conditions, but there are a few spots in blacksburg that its impossible to drive through the snow. coming down the hill on mainstreet approaching crossroads and woodys is a good example of that. if there is any ice or snow on the road you'll slide down the hill and have no chance of stopping at the light. i heard there were a lot of accidents there for that reason last winter.

say that to me when your making a turn slightly down hill in Terrace view (across from the club house) going 5-10mph and the car isn't turning anywhere.. nothing's gonna stop you till you hit that curb... worst feeling in the world knowing your gonna hit and can't do shit about....
