I always used to find coming from Red Deer that the roads often turned for the worst between Olds and Crossfield. You seem to get those crazy cross winds that blow a lot of snow onto the road and an unbelievable number of cars end up in the ditch and on their roofs on straight stretches of road. I suspect it must be cars hitting ice causing wheels to spin, only to get traction and cause some freak reaction. The first 25 kilometers South from Red Deer to Innisfail could get exceptionally bad too. I remember many a Saturday morning drive down to Calgary where there would be 70 cars in the ditch in that stretch and nothing after. No doubt some crazy stuff happens on certain stretches of that road.
