You may well be correct, and yes here in chicago we do slow down in the snow.

.... and following too close for conditions.... see? What do you do when it snows? Hopefully you slow down... but why? Because the likelihood of an incident increases. The same applies to saturated traffic... it ain't rocket science.

You just proved my point.
