    I drank a few too many Sierra Nevadas last night and stumbled onto the Zine. Saw about 5 different threads of people not knowing how to drive in snow, running around in summer tires, removing front bumpers the hard way. Thanks for Engrish Resson, though : )

    Well accidents just happen, most of the time is not our fault. But damn, OPs spelling was so bad like some kids from the project that all he did in school was selling crack.
    Either way, that's how ABS works, it simulates "pumping" so it doesn't lock the wheels and allows you some kind of control.

    Re: Weird Braking in snow?

    My post/spoof may have very well been inspired by our multi-fog-lighted friend. And don't make fun of my spelling, it took me a long time to intentionally spell everything that way. And to those guys who just explained ABS to me after I admitted the OP was a joke.... thanks!
