Now I've been a driver/operator/chauffeur on my department for a few years and know how to drive emergency.
We recently got 3" of Lake effect snow (light and fluffy) fallowed the next day by 4+ inches again. So the plows have been busy working and due to the 10 degree temperatures there is no salt just sand being applied.
So we receive a class 1 at a farm. I responded, our med squad (Chevy suburban) needed the stokes basket and requested the heavy rescue.
So I was maintaining the Fast lane left lane w/e you want to call it. But due to the snow it was 2 tracks in the lane. So slow going for sure till I turned on to the rural street and was down to a crawl.
My question relating to the long story is, if the conditions in the proper lane was more hazardous than the other would you drive in the other one even though it is not the proper one.
