投稿の詳細: 安全第一　Safety Drive

昨日夕方から急に気温が下がり、
降り始めた細かい雪が
その後強くなり今朝には
15センチほど積もって
一面の雪景色になった。

ただ朝から天気は好く
午後には大分溶けてしまった。
でも、また今夜から降るようで
明日も銀世界だろう。

道路の雪は硬く圧雪され、昼間の
好天で溶けた雪がその上を
シャーベット状に覆う。
随分溶けたので油断していると
日陰の固い雪で車の制御が
難しくなる。

お昼頃そんな道を走っていたら
前を行くスポーツカーがお尻を
45度くらい振られて対向車線に
かなりはみ出した。幸いにも
対向車はなく、またその車も
一回転とはならずに走行を続けたが
カーブではドリフトでもしているかの
様に滑っていた。

雪道や凍結した道路での
運転はスピードを落として
安全第一です。

The temperature went down rapidly
last evening and it started snowing.
It was very fine powder snow. Then
I found the snowfall of 15cm depth
this morning.

It was cold this morning but due
to the fine weather, most of the
snow melted in the afternoon.
Another snow is forecasted and I
expect the town will be covered
with snow everywhere.

The snow on the road was compressed
covered with sherbet like melting snow on it.
It looks as if it were just the melting
snow, but be careful, you can lose the
control of you car in the shadow where
the compressed hard snow still remain.

When I was driving on such a road,
a sport car in front of me slipped
and the tail moved out in the opposite
lane. The car did not turn around but
it showed almost 45 degrees turn.
Luckily there was no car in the opposite
lane. The care moved on and made very sharp
turn like a drifting due to the snow again.

Attention to the snow or frozen road. When you
have to drive, drive slowly to avoid accident!
