I know "black ice" is a relatively accepted term, but I don't really understand it. Ice is ice. If the road is wet, and the temperature of the road is below freezing, it's possible that the road has ice. The "black" part just describes that it's on a black road...because roads are black.

So, instead of thinking black ice is some mystics magical thing, I like to use other signs to determine road condition when driving.

Mine was the day after I got my license and the first day I was allowed to drive anywhere by myself.

Yes. Totaled my beautiful new red grand am on black ice. Prettiest car I ever wrecked.

I can't say that I have. The coldest it really ever gets here is mid 40s, at night in the winter.

Thank G-d you're safe! Fell on it when I was pregnant with my son late unconscious in the snow when ice for 15 minutes

One what's black ice
Two I can't drive I'm under 16 we'll I can drive but not legally

There is no black ice where I'm from.

My first accident was due to black ice.

As a passenger but I can't drive yet so not as a driver.

4 wheel brakes are more important then 4 wheel drive. Way more important.
