(with or without a car), cross-country skiing and playing sports are dangerous pastimes
when you don't know how to tell if ice is thick enough to withstand weight.
There are ways to assist in gauging the potential safety of ice, such as observing its color,
testing its thickness and being aware of external factors such as temperature, local
conditions and local knowledge.
However, no sport undertaken on ice over water bodies is ever without risk.
If in doubt, let the expert does the checking!
