Tell us, Mooron, what are the stopping distances on 6 inches of powder
vs. wet road above freezing?

What mass, speed and area of friction circle would be involved in your
Hypothetical Scenario Bobsprit? What depth of Powder, Temperature....
Standing Water?.... "road" is ambiguous Bobsprit... Asphalt?, Concrete?,
Chip Seal?, Gravel?, Clay? .... has sand, de-icer or calcium been added to
absorb water or melt ice?

Shall we engage a scenario you might be familiar with... a city street?
You claim better traction in a foot of snow than on a plowed street!! Didn't
You?

Heh Bobsprit.... you think Scotty notices 6 " of powder on the road when
driving his rig?
