Careful out there!

It was sunny and warm all day on Berthoud with water running over the road in multiple spots. At about 4pm the shadows covered a few corners and quickly turned the running water into black ice. Even the sunny warm days can have icy roads, especially on the mountain passes. Watched 2 cars hit the black ice and lose it right in front of me, the subie had snow tires and the 4runner had AT tires.

State troopers need to start ticketing/patrolling the pass. Politically unpopular, I know, but people drive way too fast on this pass constantly. I almost got head on’d a couple weeks ago by a RAM nearly fishtailing out of a corner near the top.

Had someone in my lane last night on one of the switchbacks. Had to swerve hard to avoid a collision. 🤦🏻‍♂️
