Safe Driving for Every Season

摘要

Have you ever heard of seasonal driving amnesia (SDA)? If not, don't feel bad; it was invented for the purposes of this article. But, just because it is made up doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. Think about it: Have you ever noticed that an inordinate number of vehicle crashes occur during the first snowfall of the season? Do people forget how to drive in snow from one year to the next? Do drivers forget that when the road is slippery they should slow down and leave a greater following distance? There is a case here to substantiate the existence of SDA.
