In mid November in North Dakota people were trying to remember their winter driving skills as the rain fell and the temperatures dipped below zero.
On top of the rain and the icy roads, snow and sleet fell and accompanied by heavy winds the drivers were having a hard time staying in their lanes.
All of the patrol officers were attending accidents nonstop and on Thursday, November 19 there were 23 accidents within the city limits of Grand Forks with the collisions increasing as the day went on. Things improved a little as the sanding crews went through the intersections.
Luckily most of the accidents were fender benders and there were no major injuries but even a minor accident can lead to thousands of dollars of expense and a great deal of inconvenience. Hence the need for everyone to brush up on their winter driving skills.
