Easy right, just drive normally in the lane and your car will just go over top of it, wheels on each side.
Person in front of me almost lost it a few times by driving with wheels right on the strip of snow/slush after drifting off to one side or other of the lane. All you gotta do is stay in the lane!!
I guess now I know.

The stretch of highway 1 between Calgary and Chestermere is Struggler's Row. Perfectly straight, 2 lane divided highway, no elevation changes and clear sightlines. Should be the easiest thing in the world to drive, but after every major snowfall you'll see at least one or two smooth brains off in the ditch
