It even had dunlop M'3 on it ! What a sad-day! It was really bad out there though! I don't think many (if any) snow tires (without studs)would perform properly in this wet-heavy-slush-ice-packed-crap. It just was bad stuff out there! I mean an allroader in the ditch! An allroader in the ditch! It was a great drive though! Very snowy. Best of luck to the cars in the ditch...remember drive on the right-side- edge of safe!

cars spinning out all over town today too.
saw a suburban attempt a left hand turn then, but plow/slide straight into the oncomming lane instead of completing the corner. luckily other traffic saw him in time to avoid a colision
The icebears which I didn't think had enough cornering traction made the corner just fine. maybe these conditions are really bad and are impacting my cornering assessment.

Heavy snow here as well. I've lived in this city for 4 years..
First time I see snow accumulates on the ground. What a view! Many spin outs.
Last year, 2 day of snow in total. This year, heavy snow for 3~4 days none stop and it's still going as I type. The city water pipe broke 2 weeks ago b/c of the heavy rain. Can't really drink yellow tap water. Now, many can't really drive on road as well.
my allroad with 19" on Yoko A/S tires is doing great in the snow. ( I didn't know I was going to need snow tires in this city)
So this week, I felt like a taxi driver. Some of my friends wants to carpool with me to work. I'm pratically allroading many people throughout the day.
I wish I have 3rd row so I can start charging to fund my snow tires... =P

Amen to that...folks if you're going out to "play" just make sure you do it safely...
and preferably out of my way...or anyone elses' for that matter. Let's use our quattros defensively when there are others involved. Safe winter driving to everyone out in allroadland
