    Depending on where you live and how cold it was the day of the pour and every day since it was poured it may not properly set right.

    As a rule of thumb on pouring concrete you don't want to pour a large area like a driveway when it is very cold out. When it is less than 40 degrees F out day and night you're asking for trouble having such a large area poured. You might have to have your driveway redone come spring/summer.
