Might I suggest driving slower, giving yourself extra space between you and the car ahead, along with giving yourself at least an extra 50 ft to stop?

50 feet? :? [calls up the translation app] Ah so 15 meters
Also you better have snow tires or slow down even further because your stopping distance increases to guardrail, lamp post, ditch or the ever popular police car fender.
I normally use the 3 second rule under regular driving conditions (click to show/hide)please note that driving in the city of Toronto never comes anywhere near the definition of the word NORMALbut with today's weather and road conditions it is supposed to be at least 9 seconds when traveling at speed .... that translates into about [does some higher math] 2 meters on average or just far enough behind to see their tail lights flicker off when they take their foot off the brake pedal to start to move and yet close enough not to encourage the [censored] to nose in after passing everyone on the right exit lane. This is one of the many reasons why a very specific vehicle is on my must get list for city driving. :-D

I drive in Kansas City°, myself (most of the worst drivers have Missouri plates), so I understand wanting to 'Mad Max' one's own vehicle with some well placed meter long (3ft) spikes and a pneumatic ram on either side.
°Both sides of the state line are counted as one entry for the 10 worst cities to drive in in the USA.

"That's me. I'm Evie." For some reason it just made me laugh.

I like Evie too. Also, "Isn't she adorable?" sounds more like Evie has adopted a puppy rather than gained a girlfriend :laugh:
edit: Oh, also voted "other" simply because I don't think there's anything particularly significant about this visit.
Something like: Evie tells Amanda about presenting her paper at SMIF, Amanda says, "SMIF's in Northhampton? My sister lives in Northhampton! Haven't seen her in years - what say I tag along?"
TheEvilDog:
Ah those Whitakers, missing the obvious when its smacking them in the face.
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
Anyone think there's a chance Evie is Renee's sister? After all when she first appeared Renee was Faye's Secret Bakery analog, so it would kind of make sense for her to have a lesbian younger sister.
