usually it takes one driver who dosen't know how to drive in snow, to mess up everyone elses momentum.

One thing I always notice when the weather is like this. The people who don't clear the snow off their vehicles are always the ones who are clueless about how to adhere their driving to the conditions

Tip for Nov.2016: if you stall going up a hill and have to reverse your way downhill, ENGAGE REVERSE! The point being taht reversing down a slippery slope using engine brake (or just reversing at idle speed) will actually help you maintain control of your car. Else, just "falling backwards in neutral" using your brakes may lead to slipping and sliding.

Smooth and minimal throttle inputs are the key to adhesion on slush/ice, even with hardened old tyres on.

It was hopeless because it is RWD.

It is just that people in UK in general do not bother to put winter tires. I get it that it rarely snows there, but winter tires have much better grip in sub 10c temperatures. If you have a winter set of tires they will be good for at least 4 years and they make huge difference in handling and grip. No mateer RWD, FWD or AWD..

The problem is in the uk we get wet snow which is more like slush, which makes it very slippy, also it dosent snow as often as it used to so any person who passed his driving test in the last 15 years has little or no experience driving in snow, if we ever get a real winter a lot of drivers will not have a clue.

Thats why I drive a Subaru! AWD is great!
