Approaching an exit to a T-junction near where I live at around 15mph, apply the brakes early and the car starts to slide. Wierd feeling as it's all happening so slowly. Pooping myself because the T-junction joins a busy main road, so I decide to pump the brakes a little and then hold my foot down. Luckily enough the car comes to a halt in time. A few deep breaths and off I go again driving all the way to work without breaking the speed limit once. Just goes to show you can drive safely and still get into trouble in conditions like this.

Wishing you all a safe journey.

Hello

Yes, and that's when it hasn't snowed very much.

I'm REALLY not looking forward to deeper snow and ice. Supra's are not designed for this kind of weather!

Steve.
