    Default Snow sucks...

    Z06+snow=FTL. I did a 450 degree spin going straight, fishtailed into oncoming lanes multiple times, and I couldn't get into the driveway so I had to build up enough speed to slide into the grass and I still didn't get my car all the way out of the road...

    Do you really park your car on the side like that??

    Like I said I couldn't get up the driveway... I can get maybe six feet up before I slide backwards... I don't park there normally, in the last pic you can see all my tracks behind the car where I tried to get up.

    You should try reversing into the driveway instead.. not too slow though.

    Here in Barbados when it rains the roads get extremely slippery and on steep hills ppl have to reverse up to get over them, otherwise the car just fishtails and stays in one spot.. dunno if it'll work but might be worth a try
