I'll add: tires dont steer or brake when they are brake locked. They have to turn. Therefore light application of brakes in the front and use the hand/parking brake. It's pretty hard to remember this during a panic on ice which you shouldn't be doing in the first place (the panic).
Forced my daughter to do the teenager skid pad training. She got really pissed at the time, but now she's unstoppable in the freezing.
I HAVE snow tires. If I really need to get somewhere, the cleated pewag chains get installed. Takes just 5 minutes. 25mph max beats waiting hours for the tow truck.
