We had a bunch of ice for a bit and it was aggravating. Stop signs were my enemy. I would come to a complete stop and gently push the accelerator like normal. My wheels instantly spun and my tachometer showed 4,000 RPM while I might be slowly rolling backward. Someone told me that their speedometer said they were going fast while they weren't going anywhere, but I am unsure that my speedometer showed anything.
I was afraid that I would be cited for running a stop sign. "No officer, I came to a full stop, but needed to back up and get a moving stop to get past the stop sign."
I wondered if using chains would help break up the ice and packed snow, but then I saw chain tracks, so I guess not.
They just create potholes. There are so many more now!
