i was talking to my brother last nite. he was telling me about how he and his girlfriend had spun out into a ditch on friday night in the ice and snow. they were alright and everything.

but it got me thinking about 'black' ice.

here in canada, we hear the term a lot. it wasn't until this weekend that i really thought about it.

it was then that i realized that 'black' ice isn't really black ice. it's just ice over top of black pavement. if more roads were cyan it would be cyan ice.

i found that interesting.
did you?

Black ice is scary. I'm glad I dont have to drive in it.

 

[Screaming Flower]

that is interesting.

i don't have a car so i don't drive over any ice.

 

[HelloAngel]

I live in south Florida, I never drive over ice either.

I'm glad your loved ones were okay though, kobe.

my creativity(if you could call it that) is slipping.

[Screaming Flower]

No car here either.

black ice IS scary!!

especially in the night time
cos the night is black
AND the pavement is black

In South Dakota the roads are mixed with rubber to prevent pot holes (because freezing then warming then water getting into cravasses and freezing again makes pot holes, rubber roads just e----x-----pa------n-----d with the water and temperature).


Why do you care about this other than the genius of it?


The rubber makes the roads red/pink.

We do not, however, call it red/pink ice.

I for one would like to see cyan ice on the 401 (our biggest highway).

I for one would like to see cyan ice on the 401 (our biggest highway).

if the gardiner express way were suspended over toronto in a fashionable cyan, no one would want to tear it down.

 

[kobayashi]

thank you.

i'll bet the s really slip and slide on the black ice. i hope they were wearing track pants.

they were wearing pristine black pants.
the slipping and sliding left them unphased.
they're hair remained remained properly coiffed.

I guess I am not as educated as the rest of you, what the heck is cyan? Like what general color group? Red? Blue? Yellow?

 

[Laura M]

Cyan

 

[daisybean]

I once spun out on black ice a bunch of years ago.....it was not fun

Yes, if the roads were cyan colored it would be called cyan ice I suppose.

 

[Bonochick]

Black ice makes me and and

My car spun around in a circle once and almost crashed into a school bus.

I hate winter.
