i graduated from Washington State University in Pullman a little over 2 years ago. I was there for 5 and a half years. I got a bachelors and masters, so I wasn't taking my dear sweet time. Anyway, I lived in an apartment complex in an area of town which was all apartment complexes and there were only 3 roads into this area, the main and most traveled road had a pretty significant incline to drive up to get to this neighborhood. The other way was a back road that came directly from campus and it had a switch back corner and two hills, so it was pretty nasty in the winter. The third access was a road that came from the far end of town and you didn't take it to get in our out of this neighborhood unless you wanted to take the scenic route. Since probably 40% of the students in Pullman lived on that hill there was a lot of traffic on the main road. Winters were the worst. Pullman is on the boarder between Washington and Idaho. It gets a lot of snow as a general rule. So mornings where we were all waking up to 6 or more inches of snow you knew that somebody would biff it at the bottom of the hill because they chose to drive down the hill too quickly or with no regard to the fact that snow is slick. I had the unfortunate opportunity to view from afar many people slide through the intersection at the bottom of the hill. Lucky for them nobody was in the intersection, but it was still very dangerous. Frequently the plates on the cars which went sliding down the hill were from out of state.

Well, the point of all of this is that there are bad drivers out there, everyplace. Too bad they all can't be good drivers.
