"if you have 2, 4, or 1000 tires on slippery snow you will not have traction."
Don't get mad, get better tires! Rally cars do 60+ on snow/ice without much trouble. It's all about having the right equipment, skills, and most importantly knowing the limits of your car.
5,000lb. vehicles with summer tires trying to turn or stop on a dime...that's when the trouble starts. And yeah, they make me mad too. Driving around yesterday (ice and ice pellets), the only cars slid out on the side of the road were SUVs.
