Actually, I don't think there ARE guard rails!
It makes it easier to push the snow (and, I've always assumed, dead
cars) off the road.

There are guard rails on roads like the High Road in Rocky Mountain
National
Park? I didn't notice any there, I guess I should open my eyes when I
drive
it next time.
Wife: "why are you driving down the middle of the road so slowly?"
Me: "Because no one is coming toward us and I don't like the "express
route"
down on your side of the car."

just a sly fox, and remember, my opinion and $ will buy coffee at the
trading post
