Reply to comment by ArchdukeOfNorge in Roads cleared after multiple pileups on I-94, drivers warned by nosotros_road_sodium

Throttle is fine with 4/AWD.

Brakes in snow don't exist. The only real thing you need to know to drive safely in snow/ice is to never put yourself in a position where you have to brake (especially brake hard).

And obviously don't lay on the throttle if you don't have traction...

**Or quickly change direction.

I've seen several pickups go ass over tea kettle on the side of the road after trying to swerve to get around someone they thought was a bad/slow driver.
