Default Not negligent, normal winter driving conditions in this country
what do you expect? Is the driver supposed to stop every half hour to check for ice? Get real.

Default Nope, it'll be: this is winter in Canada doofus, get real
I can't believe you guys. Next you'll be looking for compensation if a vehicle in front kicks up a rock. Who ya gonna sue, the vehicle or the guy who put the rock on the road?

Did recall something on the news that if there are witnesses you could be held liable for it.
