Dont mean to question your driving skills, but how much experience do you have driving in the snow? Is the car auto or manual? If its a manual, how much experience do you have driving a manual in the snow?
I ask this because I notice that some people dont really know how to handle snow or a manual for that matter. Its just that, I come from a country where there is no such thing as automatic, no FWD, and snow doesnt get cleaned off the streets. And most people drive 30 year old cars, which, needless to say dont come with traction control.
