slow and steady gas pedal use, flooring it doesn't give you traction...... little to no braking, all it does is lock the wheels..... 4wd and snow tires help but does not give you the ability to drive like a moron...... with a manual transmission keep it in a low gear and keep the revs high, use the engine as your brake....and with an auto trans use L or 1 or 2 if you have it...keeping it in D drops the revs and leaves the braking to your now useless brakes.... its not that hard.
If you press the gas hard, your tires wont be able to grip anything and then you'll dig a little hole to the ice. Start of slow, let your tires get some grip then give it a little gas, man people dont know how to drive.
The towtruck driver said it best. "We all over estimate our ability". I grew up in CO. I'm constantly harassed about how slow I drive in the snow. I call it experience! If you can't know where exactly you will come to a rest, you're going to fast!
@homelesspimps i believe that was an S-line A4 which does not come in quattro..it is fwd....quattro is amazing however, front wheel bias when you need it in situations like this and rwd bias during sporty driving
All these idiots trying to drive around in the snow and ice with summer tires on the cars....just plain stupid. To drive with summer tires on winter roads are just as dangerous as driving drunk. Get proper winter tires and conditions as on this video is no problem, because its just a little snow and ice. Which means a normal winter road here in Scandinavia. Whats the problem....?
I find it funny how some people like to laugh at us Seattlites in how we drive in the snow with no regards to consider that we have to deal with such steep hills that are most likely non existent on the east coast or mid western states. The other thing is that east coastners amongst other states don't really know how to drive in the snow either from what I see every winter.
@universaleffect Wise words, I am guessing your car has a manual gearbox which are the best, Autos just get confused in the snow even with Traction control.
@iamherenotheretobe agreed. proper tires are the key. and proper speed. yes ill admit i open teh donut factory in my crown vic , usually in parking lots but hills lol.
the worst part of this video is the first two people who obviously know they are on ice but once they get moving they just haul ass, like that bmw took that corner way to fast
THIS IS WHY YOU DRIVE REAR WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT PICKUPS LIKE MY 92 MITSUBISHI...2WD 5 SPEED MANUAL...I LIVE IN CANADA AND NEVER HAVE PROBLEMS ON THE ICE OR BURIED IN SNOW HAHAHAHA
@coreyhess1 because dumbass if you slip and slide the car slips and slides and your supposed to walk idiot not use the car cretin I use the car for long trips not for arons around town for ex
@segovian I love biking in the snow. Only set back is that on a bike it is 100 times more treacherous because the tires are very thin and really are not meant to winter riding. Even the mountain bike heavy tread tires work no good. But its a lot of fun still, especially when your out and its still snowing.
keep spinning those tires that will help get more traction!
