Just talked to a buddy in ATL. He's from NY...and went to Mich State... Needless to say he said the roads are basically sheets of ice and ATL is mad hilly, so the two combined, along with limited to no salt/sand trucks are causing the dilemma. Understandable.

city doesn't have plows... and why should they, it's a waste of money
people's cars don't have all season tires.... and why should they, it's not ideal for the region
the government ****** this one up... it's all on them for not telling ppl to stay the **** home and closing the schools
business owners were also irresponsible for having people come to work .... but they'll just blame it on the news not telling them

i thought i misunderstood.......
this morning around 6am my aunt told me that her friend from atl texted her saying that she just got home from work. she got offa work at 4:15pm.....
i was confused as to how a traffic jam could be THAT bad.
so i just thought i misunderstood what she was sayin but i guess it really is that bad round there

Roads weren't even pre-treated and there are only 40 plows in the city.
No, it snows. Not often but it can and apparently does.

Im from the South. Love the south, but ATL deserves the flak they're getting. Its not like they didn't have a warning. It was just snowing and freezing in Texas last week and yesterday. How did they not see this coming? What Ive been told from friends that live in ATL, freezing is a regular so...someone dropped the ball big time.

Exactly. This stuff can't be going over you guy's heads.
Dudes in here saying two inches isn't anything to prepare for. Yeah. Okay. Just ignore the fact that the last time the state of Ga saw snow was in 2011... On a weekend where traffics on highways is nonexistent. Then, factor in the fact that the snow was out within 24 hours to do away with the inch or so of snow before the workweek started back.
Fact is, upwards of a million people WORK in the city of Atlanta, but live on the outskirts of the city. Those two inches of snow turns to ice as these million or so people are trying to get home. The roads WERE pretreated before the snow came. Not with actual salt, because that blows away with the wind. The solutions they used on the roads worked for a few hours but the ice was bound to happen as people tried to rush out the city. Accidents happen on ice, don't give a damn where you live. Add in the delayed traffic and folks abandoning their cars when they ran out of gas, and this is what you get.
