Driving conditions
Looks like these guys are not going to deliver pizza to the Kuvakas house. LOL
Car in 2nd photo looks like a Buick, judging from the emblem on the radiator. Buick had a square emblem with a white background and the Buick name written in blue script.
There are many people alive today who talked with those who drove cars under such conditions. These "roads" were common into the 1920's and existed in some places in the USA into the 1950's. We forget too quickly, I'm afraid.
Good eye!
