The ice does get to be about 18"-24" thick and we do drive on them to go ice-fishing, we use full size 4X4's and it is safe as driving on a road. Just don't do it in early spring :rotflmao  :D  :D

I was watching a deal on Discovery (I think) one time about all the ice highway big rig truckers rolling across the frozen lakes in 18 wheelers and feeling the ice surge under them as they drove across with 80,000 pounds... no thank you.

It's not as bad as you think, I worked in a camp job and flew in for a week and out for a week up North ,the landing on the lake was border-line crazy shit. You in the plane where the test to see if it was froze enough! :D  :p  :p

Ya big wussy, didn't you ever do some crazy sh!t on some of your construction sites. When I worked underground, up to 4400 ft down, we would get some big time adrenalin rushs doing some regular job.  :eek

I've done all kinds of crazy shit, but I'm not keen on the cold, ice, driving on ice in the cold or any other combination of the above.

And if you start to break thru, you are supposed to open your doors to help keep the car above the ice long enough for you to get out.

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests???

Ice belongs in the freezer or in the ice chest (hence the name), but other than that, no thank you.   :D
