It is the black ice that gets the 4 wheelers around here. Ever since they invented M&S tires when it rains on Donner summit on I80 they require chains unless you have 4 wheel drive, so you end up wit

Clearly I passed the straight test. Jim said " Ice Capades" so I assumed that they were skating moves. Turns out they are dance moves and I could not identify them as even that. _____________________

No ABS??? --Original Message-- From: Bill Gilroy Funniest one was a Subaru that almost made it to the top of the hill. When he started to slide backwards he hammered the brakes and locked the wheels.

ABS works on speed difference between the wheels.That's one reason why it doesn't go off at a dead stop. Lock 'em up at 0mph, and then start to slide, and it'll do you no good. But if you let go and

That's good to know. I'm old enough that I think that I would instinctively back off the brakes if they were locked up, but it's good to know. Now ... how can I test that? :) ABS works on speed diffe

In fact, ABS equipped cars tend to have longer stopping distance on dry pavement. Not sure about ice, never owned a car that had it. It's only function, AFAIK, is directional control and control in a
