She turns from the left turn lane into the left lane so that she can think about whether or not she wants to turn left into Target. At some point she decides she does not and is still in the left lane trying to decide if she wants to change lanes and is upset because other drivers are continuing in the right lane and somehow could not read her mind and understand that she really wanted to be in the right lane after all.
Do I have the situation clear now?
She should have had her hazards on... That would have fixed everything.

WOOT! :woo hoo:
I grew up diving in the tundra as well. Heck they actually plowed lanes across some of the lakes up there and that cut a good 20 minutes off some folks commutes. Ever try to go as fast as your vehicle can go on ice? And then pull the parking break? If you have front wheel drive it works better in reverse BTW. Just stay away from those channels that bring warm spring water into the lake (Splash).

If someone's trying to tackle snow and ice in 4 low, They're too stupid to own a real transfer case.
Isn't 4 low for when you are already stuck in the ditch?
Depends on the vehicle. In a fully loaded heavy truck with narrow tires and chains, yeah 4low will let you motor out of the ditch. Basically, you're plowing your way out.
In any lighter vehicle (including most SUVs) without tire chains, you need to get on top of, and stay on top of the deep snow. That requires speed and momentum, which requires 4hi.

CG, haters gonna hate. The rest of us know that stuff happens especially in bad weather and that mean people make life harder for the rest of us. I'd have let you in.
