If they can, they're a better driver than I. (speaking of dry conditions)
I was taking the fiance out to put her sideways in the lot here at the motor speedway and forgot to turn off the VDC.
Let's just say I looked like a fool expecting to have my fiance scream and laugh with fear and excitement, and ending up with some tense muscles and frowning.
Let's also just say the VDC wouldn't allow the *ss to come out from behind while driving in bad ice/sleet/slush today on the interstate under moderate acceleration. Although I wasn't trying today, I thought I was in a higher gear when I gave it a little pressure, and she shimmied a little. Whether I stayed on the gas or released, the car stopped giving power to the wheels and engine and would not rev back up until traction was regained.
