Hear, hear! Finally someone laid it on the line. Use your head. Why couldn't this have been said about thirty posts ago. Another good idea is to have emergency supplies like a map, gloves, boots, a full tank of gas when you start your trip. There's nothing that will ensue disater more than a lack of preparedness. As for the technical aspects of driving on rain, snow or ice, CHECK WITH THE DEALERSHIP. They have access to the results of hundreds of hours of testing with your model of car. This BS of trying to remember thirty or forty rules that only peripherally relate to your car is going to delay a reaction or cause an incorrect reaction.
