Fair enough.
I’ll admit it wasn’t a particularly well thought out note. I just had observed some vehicles going quite fast down an icy hill and losing control and dashed out what I thought was a witty statement 🤷♂️

Understood. I like science done right, tested and replicated, and this was a great opportunity to correct a common myth with facts proven by the scientific method.
I was once driving my truck in a snow storm taking my time and being safe. A woman in a midsize SUV passed me on the highway and her brake discs were glowing from how hard the traction control was working to keep her going straight.
I don't know if she made it. I imagine that drive cost her a few hundred dollars in new brakes at a minimum.
I know someone will think hospital hearing that story, but it happened just past the exit for the nearest hospital, going away from the hospital not toward it.
