    Oof. I feel for her. That fight/flight/freeze response can be really hard to override, especially given her background.

    I taught myself how to drive in the snow pretty soon after I got my license, in a 1991 FJ80 Land Cruiser with zero electronic aids. I figured out how to drift that pig through the whole church parking lot 😂, but being able to do that on my own was hugely beneficial to where I can now make my FWD cars perform better in the snow than most drivers here with 4WD. I just turn off traction control if it’s too hairy… Sometimes you need that wheelspin.
