All was well until I got stuck at work and it started snowing. Lots of people crashed that day; it got really bad really fast without much warning.

Now I have more appreciation for things like ABS and traction control, 2 things I didn't have in that car.
yah, unexpected weather changes does affect drivabilty considerably cause tires might not stick very well suddenly.

with our cars, vcd is not completely turned off even if one turns it off, so you have the extra margin of error + abs. and much better tire selection too these days.
