OK, taking this discussion to a higher level.
When it snows, dumb drivers aren't the only ones using more fuel. Fuel is spent in great amounts by snowplows, and by people using fossil fuel powered machines to de-snow-ify instead of the good ol' shovel. Plus salt (and the environmental penalty not only of using it, but also of mining and transporting). Plus spraying chemicals onto airplanes so they don't ice up. Plus trucks that get rid of snow by transporting it from city streets to rural areas or dumping it into rivers. Plus machines that get rid of snow by melting it. Plus heated driveways and sidewalks.
