People who purposely try to do those kind of things are idiots, in my opinion. I don't care how souped up your car, truck, SUV, whatever is, it's a dumb idea. There were people out doing that while the roads were even worse then they are now, while others were on the road. Most of those people ended up in the ditch, too.
I find it really scary when I slip and slide, especially since I'm the one driving. I worry about my car, myself, and everyone else around me. I would feel horrible if I hit someone else. No one in my family can afford a new car, nor the insurance if one was wrecked or in an accident. I suppose it's not anywhere near as scary if you aren't the one driving, especially if you aren't the one responsible for everything that could happen.
