No it doesn't, they were tards already, the snow just highlights them

Guy trying to turn round in my road was just flooring it and getting nowhere.. everyone else just smoothly turns round no problem :/

Just drop it up an extra gear. An light throttle. Not hard really.
Snow just seems to have highlighted the fact bus drivers are tards more so than actual cars. Seem to forget they are in a really big moving object that requires a lot more breaking distance

I gave that ditch a car, ditches love cars.

I heard those guys crashed as they were taking pictures of the previous fails instead of concentrating on driving....

f*ck that drop it down a gear rev the bollocks off it and pull the handbrake up lol
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - Toms306 - 18-01-2013
Reverse is a pain though........
Couldn't get back on my drive earlier in R, 1, 2 or 3!! Had exactly the same issue with my previous 306, theres two kerbs that I have to go over onto a hill, theres no chance without traction control. Incidently had no issues at all in the Golf last year lol.
In the end I just took a run up in 2nd to bump up and onto the drive, risking taking out the fence and or the brand new Fiesta lol. Luckily neither of those happened, but Im at such a shit angle now for when my Mum has to park next to it.
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - Niall - 18-01-2013
Tom traction control will make it much worse. In this weather, you want traction control off and actually drive properly instead of most of these idiots that try to drive like its a sunny day.
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - Toms306 - 18-01-2013
Nope, getting on the driveway it was so useful last year in the Golf. Obviously you dont need it on flat ground, I managed to negotiate the rest of my drive fine, its just getting back on the drive thats such a pain.
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - Niall - 18-01-2013
You might want to consider learning to drive in the snow then
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - Toms306 - 18-01-2013
As I said, driving in snow is fine. Getting back onto the driveway afterwards though, definitely isnt!!
I managed my Nans driveway fine, is just the way mine is badly setup.
RE: West Sussex drivers love snow! - procta - 18-01-2013
you lot are wrong! lots of harsh acceleration and braking, and a bit handbraking on the side to add abit of fun in the snow.
