I was thinking the same thing… I can oversteer the hell out of my neon with the ebrake. even on cold wet pavement…

controlable winter driving always depends on the tires used. and the weight distribution of the drive tires. I4 FWD cars with skinny front tires are much safer IMO than a awd top heavy suv.
