    best way to drive in the SNOW!!!

    heys just wana share something really important when drivin in the snow, yh i kno vr4's dont get stuck in the snow,

    but for everybody else best thing to do is "let some air out of your tyres, " just a little, then this way your tyres will have more contact with the road and you are less likely to get stuck in the snow..

    better get some rep points for this

    Apparently small little shopping trolly style cars like base spec puntos and corsas etc are best for driving in the snow coz of the narrow wheels.

    For me tho, if we had snow in Lossie the best way to drive would be.........sideways!!!!
