That black car (on the right side of the screen) blocking traffic is a Mercedes-Benz. It is rear wheel drive. What good is a luxury car if it can't get up a snowy hill? The driver needs the 4Matic AWD option/snow tires.

I agree. I saw a lot of Benz/BMWs stuck. Luxury/Sport is fine, but go with AWD in this kind of weather.

Same here in Switzerland. It`s always rear drive Mercedes and BMW´s that block the traffic. They`re useless in snow. Either AWD or front wheel drive with snow tires and you`re fine.

hahaha what the hells that dude doing in the white car?

@evilunixuser1 It could be that you have better tires, drive better, or put weight in the back. All of that DOES make a difference, especially if you do it all.

@snowrocket - My 1987 Chevy Pickup (rear wheel drive) handled the snow better than the Mercedes.
