And 4x4 drivers are often the worst

I used to live at the bottom of a short but fairly steep hill in Watford. There was significant snow a couple of times while I lived there and on both occasions I saw overconfident 4x4 drivers sliding backwards down the hill.

I have also seen Toronto unable to cope (it was the year of SARS whenever that was). Unexpected snow in April caused chaos.
