I know "officially" that much ice should be able to hold pretty much anything on the road .... but it's always best to be reasonably cautious.

I have never been 100% comfortable driving on the ice. You just never know.
It was only 15" total in both spots we fished at yesterday. I felt safe driving on but 15" is about my minimum even though I driver a lighter suv.
