But when someone is going 5 mph and impeding traffic and you can't really get around them so you put some distance between you and them it often means there are a number of cars behind you tailgating you and deciding you are the problem. What is a person supposed to do?
It will continue to get worse as you say, so make sure your car is in good working condition with adequate tires, decide that it is going to take some time because there are lousy inexperienced snow/ice drivers and be so totally alert like you are in afghanistan and you never know where the next sniper fire or land mines are coming from.
This is where to cops need to be there and pull that person over for impeding traffic and unsafe driving...I've never seen it happen...maybe it will one day.
