While at a stoplight in my Subaru, a Golf making a left hand turn onto my road somehow lost control, oversteered, and wound up with the front wheels on the narrow island, headlights pointed at my door, 2 feet away. It happened outside of my peripheral vision and I didn't see this until she stopped.
Another few mph and I would have had a real crappy morning. Seriously, how hard is it to make a wide 10 mph turn on light snow??!
On the other hand, my AWD + new Nokian WRs made for easy travel. I was tempted to take the 9-5 wagon to see how the new Nokian RSi's handled, but will wait for weekend snow for that :)
