When you live in a country where everyone assumes we live in igloos, its still considered ice up here.
Black ice is what you find in Pepsi/Coke slurpies/slushies up here!
Don't need a scraper = black ice. Equivalent to frost on you windshield. Nothing a bit of salt can't fix.
Layers upon layers of "ice" = ice. Translucent not transparent, if its still transparent its still quite mild.
I live in the middle of rolling hills, you don't have to remind me of what ice is.
If we didn't have regular passes by the salt truck/snow plow we'd have a sh*t load of ice.
