It was fine in the car, but the VSA triangle warning light went off every 2 seconds.

The stock all-season tires are fine in 3-4 inches of snow on FLAT roads as long as you drive SLOW and watch the corners.

In 5+ inches, curves and hills you are better off with snow tires.

you will, gently apply the brakes, and give yourself more stopping distance, with abs and snow, the wheel locks up easier, then it releases, it locks, releases, so its rolling more than stopping
