Yea, 50% of the people running off roads and into ditches during Snowpocalypse in Atlanta last year were originally from Connecticut or Illinois.

Living in the north I hear people make fun of southerners all the time when it comes to snow and ice on the road. My experience here tells me they're not much better at driving in those conditions. They always seem to forget that any time 2+ inces of snow drop that there are hundreds/thousands of plowing/salting trucks on the road. Any time there is a delay in plowing (or the rate at which the snow is falling is faster than the plows can keep up with) you see cars in ditches and multi-car pile ups all over the roads.

eta: ice doesn't seem to be nearly as common as it did when I lived in the Carolinas.
