The problem starts when you get a steep hill.

An old lady passed by in a 3 Series XDrive just looking at me...

watching back a few month later. Our roads in the UK are a joke in these conditions. People think they can go driving on tyres that were borderline at the last MOT 6 months earlier. All season tyres should be standard fit in the UK.

Come to canada my friend it’s exactly this 6 months of the year if you do I’ve got some tips 1 winter tires are a must 2 buy a car that allows manual selection of gears doesn’t have to be a stick shift paddle shifters are fine 3 make sure you got 4wd because there is many many steep hills that 2wd is just unable to do no matter the tires 4 have fun drifting because it’s literally a tap of the gas away at all times 5 enjoy the beautiful scenery

It's honestly amazing to see how well your car and those tires are handling this, I live in an area of the south that doesn't normally get snow but this year we did. I lost traction at the front and ended spinning out, and I wasn't even going 30mph yet. It really doesn't help that my car doesn't have traction control, but I'm really considering getting a set of snow tires for the winter, even if it doesn't snow this year.

His driving ability should be taken into account more than his tires. You should not drive like him in the snow if you don't have experience counter steering even if you got good winter tires. There were times he was counter steering for a long time at once because he had no traction in the rear and was just fishtailing. Someone who has not got a lot of experience counter steering would likely spin out driving like that in a storm.

[@hlf_coder6272]

It's actually super easy to control the car like that in the snow. It's a really easy way to teach people how to drift and spin the ass end around. Just take them to an empty, snow covered parking lot and 20 mins or so later, they're doing it like champs. Then in the summer, just apply the same principles.

[@ZenTunE-]

@@hlf_coder6272 Yeah, rwd is easy. Especially on snow, no real chance of spinning out compared to on ice.

[@sanchezking6188]

Having a real mechanical limited slip differential (not those fake ones pulsing the brakes), which the E92 M3 has, helps tremendously in snow. It may not help you at not losing grip, but when you do you can make much better use of what grip is left, i.e. you can keep on going better. And real (and sufficiently new!) winter tires of course.

[@PrevName-h9v]

Years ago I had a C5 Corvette with really good all season tires, I drove it all winter long and never had a problem as long as I respected what is, and is not, possible with a car like that in those conditions. Usually the limiting factor was the ground clearance, not the car's ability to stay on the road.

[@lukaszpowalowski8342]

Winter tires are simply the only tires that really work in snow conditions. I had recently mounted a set of premium winter Continentals on my MTB and made it through stuff where even the cars had difficulties. The most guys here just pushed their bikes around. They are not used to winter around here haha. Love winter driving, be it MTB or car. Provided it has the right tires fixed! This was very fun to watch!

Drove my S5 all the way from Great Neck, NY to Raleigh, NC during the blizzard in Dec 2017. It was the craziest most enjoyable drive of my life. All those years of rally sim racing paid off in spades. But the quattro AWD did help. Mind you, I did that leg on all seasons, not snow tires. Pretty sure I'd be toast if it was RWD. Watching this reminded me of that crazy drive. Nicely done!

[@Wasabi9111]

Haha. I did a similar drive in the blizzard of Dec 2009 from great neck to Hartford in my moms Volvo awd and oem all season tires. I was young at the time and didn’t think much about it. But now looking back, I realized it was stupid and dangeorus! This Volvo was the first awd car we ever had and it performed so amazing well it gave me a lot of false sense of traction.

[@SazParts]

I love blizzards, not for driving, but how awesome and beautiful it looks. My brother in law also has a jeep cherokee which we took drifting during this storm. Awd is so much fun in the snow.

[@reinisrudzitis4802]

It`s not that dangerous, if you are used to it. We have winters like these where I live (Northern Europe) from time to time and the key of getting home safe is a good set of fresh winter tires + common sense. I`ve been driving rwd cars all my life and winters like these are a treat. I love how silent the driving feels. Absolutely no road noise. Just the engine. Don`t floor it, don`t jerk the steering wheel too sharp, don`t downshift hard , brake gently and you will be fine. Way more dangerous is slightly freezing temp + rain when the black ice is forming on the roads. Thumbs up for keeping that traction control off. :)

I have a 01 325i touring rwd. I have 19 inch with continental dws "dry, wet and snow" I get a dusting and they suck. I have my wi ter set up and they are Michelin XIce. Love them night and day. The confidence and control on ice or heavy snow packed roads are amazing. I put them on my 2020 x5. Amazing.

Pshhhhh my S6 could do this in REVERSE!

[@TedwardDrives]

thanks to those Vredestein Wintrac Pros! haha but yes you'd have gotten a phone call if it went south..Do you have a tow strap?

[@tunahan2950]

Honestly I wish Tedward could also film something like this in an RS5 or an S6 like yours. I would love to see how an Audi would’ve performed in these conditions.

OMG IT'S THE REAL IGNITIONTUBE

Time for s6 winter pov :)

@@tunahan2950 Yeah, I'd love to see him drive or even own an RS6 some time

This is a great substitute for not having winter tyres on my sports car anymore. I can enjoy the fun and struggle by watching your video 🤣

[@MrCheesypuf]

I've driven through many storms like this on the 401 west of Toronto in Ontario. Definitely a vibe. Snow tires are a must.

[@joaoricardoalves651]

I’m stranded at a motel somewhere in the superior lake area due to snow. Any recommendations on how to fare the road in such conditions?

[@MrCheesypuf]

@@joaoricardoalves651 if it's truly a really bad blizzard, it's worth it to just stay where you are. A good way is assessing how bad it is is to check how much its snowing, if you need to drive through open rural areas, if you have snow tires..... the reason i say open rural is because the wind can cause the road to completely disappear under snow. Also if you decide to make the trip, bring extra warm clothing and make sure your phone is fully charged

[@theFirstAidKit]

I got to drive a BMW 320 a while back when a snowstorm hit. I took the traction control off and hit the road. There was no one out and the snowblows hadn't cleared the roads yet at all. It was crazy, I could easily drift at speeds as low as 15-20 kph with good winter tyres and there were no one else driving. So I just spent a good few hours just driving around, mostly sideways. It was a really nice learning opportunity to learn how to handle the car.

[@iAWP-]

Wow, such a fascinating video! You're a great driver and commentator mate, loved every minute. Those conditions are so mesmerising to me - I'm from Australia and it's 80F, storming right now :D

[@tomthomson2109]

Das war wirklich entspannend. Hoffentlich bekommen wir auch mal wieder so einen Winter.😁

[@anonymebande8561]

Kann ich mir in Deutschland fast net vorstellen! Wäre aber schön ja

[@stevenn4382]

Would you say the LSD from the M3 really helps in weather like this? I'm wondering how an open diff RWD would've faired

[@TedwardDrives]

Yes definitely helpful. It means you need to be more comfortable with driving sideways and controlling slip, but its trickier to get moving with an open diff in really slippery conditions. My 350Z had an open diff and although I never got stuck, it was not as confident as the M3.

[@itchyonion3559]

A proper differential is the key in snow!

[@silimarina.]

@@itchyonion3559 More like proper winter tires

[@RCXDerp]

@@silimarina. Both are good if one wheel is on ice with an open diff you are buggered regardless

[@silimarina.]

@@RCXDerp True, but tires are the most important investment in your car. Because they are the ones that make the contact with the road. You can have all the 4x4, open diff, ESP, TC,etc.if you don't have winter tires in conditions like this you will not go far

[@michaelqu]

I remembered driving through the Coquihalla during a blizzard for 100 miles with a cheap Nissan Versa but with all weather (not all season) tires seeing 4x4s with summer tires in the ditch

[@robinjonk]

This reminds me about the time about a month after I bought my very first car (an old beat-up 2004 Renault Laguna I got for less then 1K€). In the morning there was barely a cloud in the sky, but within 8 hours from then the roads turned to hell for this poor old Renault with 20/30cm snow and a blizzard still going strong. Didn't have any fancy winter tires to help me then! Man was I proud to get home without a scratch that day. I even managed to get some colleagues home aswell. Lucky for them since the buses had stopped running.

[@Garik.e60]

this was oddly such a relaxing video

[@Toxa1300]

If only I had roads like these, I wouldn't be going straight for a moment during the winter :) Here in Latvia, almost every road is very narrow, you can only drift with surgical precision. Then 1 day after the snowstorm most roads are covered with salt and start melting. Time to move to the US :D

[@anman366]

Hahaha I LOL'ed and the "beaver st. giggity" comment! Great video, being a California native I don't see much of this type of road condition. Great job!
