First off, you can't see "black ice" because it is black!

My biggest concern about winter driving isn't my car or my abilities, it is with guys that drive like like this thinking that their 4 wheel drive has magical stopping powers.

Also this is a classic example of psychological projection...it isn't his fault that he was racing a Ford Flex in terrible conditions, it was the other driver's fault for stopping. Seems to be a common theme nowadays...

I am confident in my ability in the snow as well as my WinterSports, but I'm with you, I prefer not to go out on the road if I don't have to because there's always the risk of getting creamed by someone that doesn't know what they are doing.

DUDE OMG! THAT WAS ME!!! HAHAH that was the worst driving experience of my life. I didn't wreck though. went off the road once..pulled to the side of the road by the guard rail and waited for a tow truck that never came. Waited for the roads to clear and finally backed up in the highway and went to a hotel for the night. You cannot drive this car in the winter! That is hilarious you filmed my car haha
