| What a scary experience... The car had absolutely no traction at all. If I even let out the clutch, the tires would spin and the back end would come around. If I was moving and let up on the gas a bit, it also would come around. I also got stuck going up a very slight grade. My car was starting to slide backwards into another car whose driver couldn't comprehend how my car could handle so badly in a dusting of snow. Finally I made it up by driving on the edge of the road where there are lots of pebbles which gave it some grip. It's funny looking back at that now, the crown of the road would cause the back end to hang out about 20 degrees in the direction of the shoulder. Oncoming traffic was slamming on their brakes and skidding because they thought I was losing control and coming into their lane, although my car was actually moving straight, just with the tail hanging out. My car is staying in the driveway for now on if there's a chance of snow.
