As ICE agents surged into Minneapolis, they found actual road ice to be more than a match for their wits and driving skill. Look at this. The federal agents have all but given up, and they haven’t even activated four-wheel drive. They also haven’t made it out of the parking lot. Credit to the photographer […]

I don’t see what the big deal is. Go slow and leave plenty of following distance. Fucking duh. They used our money to buy themselves giant 4x4 suburbans and even with every advantage they can’t drive in winter conditions? Pathetic
Saw a used car with AWD for sale with the ad saying that AWD is better for acceleration, cornering AND stopping in slippery conditions.
I honestly wanted to ring the dude up and ask how it would help with the stopping, given that it’s heavier than the RWD version of the same car and they both have exactly 4 wheels worth of braking power.

“Instructions unclear. Shot the ice, shoveled as much of it into the back of the van as possible.”
I like this mentality, but from from your average citizens please
A few days ago I would have made a joke about them not shooting the ice/snow because it’s white. So much for that!
A 4x4 will give you extra power. But not extra stopping power. My guess is they assume that they could just drive normal due to this.

Manual drives are more common here, when you brake on the engine 4 wheels are decelerating instead of 2 so that could help.
No car only brakes with only two wheels. All four wheels are used when the brake pedal is pressed.
And in any case, using brakes with ABS is still better than engine braking without ABS when stopping in any condition, but especially on snow or ice
