Being born & raised in Michigan, I am VERY accustomed to driving in snow & ice.
We always kept a large bag of kitty litter in the car. It gives good
traction if one is
stuck. Also, remembering that you never do anything "quickly" when driving on
ice. A slow, steady movement is just about necessary. Living in Tennessee,
it is always funny to watch natives drive on the rare icy roads.

p.s. we have about an inch of snow on top of ice on the roads in the
country here
but it will thaw before too long.
