Yea, that's just not thinking at all. I have seen this as well. Saw someone in a t-shirt, sandals, no jacket or coat. It was 30 degrees. I keep blankets, and get home bag. On the other hand I just don't go anywhere either. Just 7 miles to work and back, I know several people all along the way, I probably would not even have to get out of the car if it stalled. I don't swerve for deer, I am cautious and always scanning. Deer are more a problem with driving here than bad weather. That and inattentive drivers. It is just smart to keep a store at home, I do and don't ever have to go shopping. But to pick up fresh stuff, I go before work to cut down on travel. I even take side roads to stay away from the highway. My office is on the highway in a small town and there are a lot of bad drivers, I see it all day long.I don't see the point of going out and putting myself at risk, that's why we have a larder and food stocks, we could probably sit tight for at least a couple of months.
people are always putting themselves at risk, we see it all the time, they go out in bad weather, with no coat, shirt sleeves with the car heater on full, no food and a tiny bottle of water, no first aid kit and no shovel, no hot drinks, and they end up trapped in a snowdrift on one of the highest points in the region and have to be rescued by the emergency services, the only "emergency" shelter is either a motel or a local senior school.
