RWD cars in snow are such a gong show. For $&!#s and giggles a few buddies and I did a road trip through northern BC in December in an old V8 Crown Vic police car complete with push bumper. Even with snow tires we were drifting constantly. I don't think the car had its back wheels behind it during a single corner of that trip. It was awesome.

johngould21 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Currently snowing in Burnaby, and I know everyone has their snow tires on, right???? Caribou Hill is a downhill course apparently, cars spinning out, I assume going up, but I'm sure coming down, because, yes Shaky, that one is pretty steep too! Lots of hills in Burnaby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 10th Ave., going down to North Road is steeper than most of them in Burnaby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Balboa Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 My favorite are the &**tmobiles blowing by everyone 20-30 kph over the limit like they have something to prove. Good luck stopping if a slow car turns out in front of you! I've always said anyone can drive fast in the snow. Stopping is another matter...

jovocop55 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 they were so unprepared for this.. no salt on road or no snow plows even on main roads.. i guess they was expecting snow later tonight, not this early.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moz Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 When I woke up this morning it wasn't snowing now everything looks all pretty and white. It stopped for a bit at first light but now it's coming down again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need snow tires for that little of snow. 90% of people here in Buffalo use normal tires on their vehicles and during mid-winter our snow can some years be measured in feet, not inches.
