It has been raining a lot since yesterday in my part of So Cal and I was wondering since the roads are wet and slippery if I should be in Winter mode until it dries up over here? Today my sister who is visiting noticed my little yellow triangle light that flashed for about a minute and said I should have been driving a little more slowly because my traction kicked in? She also drives a MB, new S class herself. I might have been giong a little too fast for the wet streets. Sometimes I don't realize it. Just got a NASTY speeding ticket for going 65 on a 40 mph road and I really didn't notice I was speeding. That will be some big dollars if I go to traffic school which I will

Anyway, I will drive carefully. At least I have new brakes and tires on my car. I was car sitting last week for my friend's new 2008 BMW 328i. She didn't want to leave it in her open parking structure for several days that she was gone so I let park in my garage and she said I could take it to work if I wanted. I know this is off the subject of my E class but I was pretty impressed with it! Solid car and it handles great despite the road feel on bumps. She has the sports pack. I couldn't figure out the nav if my life depended on it though!
