If the roads are slippery you have to slow to the conditions of road..Speed was a factor in the crash.

I agree. It's been snowing all day and I haven't seen a snowplow at all, the roads are never plowed. I swear its like they wait for it to end and hope for mild weather and rain to take it away. City of St John's is absolutely terrible with keeping our roads safe, its a joke!
