There is what we call “black ice” and it is for real. Black ice is when it rains or even humidity on an asphalt road and the moisture and oil mixture causes a slick payment. About the gates... I see them down often but they do their job of slowing vehicles down as they approach an entry into a Village. It’s an important safety device when golf carts are crossing behind the gates. Some people (even when retired) can’t give up their fast paced life they lived prior to retirement. Slow down and smell the roses.
