As a driver, I get extremely irritated by people who drastically change their driving styles as soon as the weather takes a turn for the worse; but with these self-heating roads, that may mean the end of such annoyances. Don't get me wrong, people should be cautious, but there's a point in which being too 'safe' becomes a hazard itself.
