    Adding to this… Traction control does not make you invincible. The computer is going to step in and selectively brake wheels to try to keep you in control of the car. You can absolutely get the car in a situation that the TC can not mitigate. When that system goes off, it should be a glaring alert to you, that you overdrove the car and conditions, and you need to re-evalute how you are driving immediately!

        It’s 4-wheel drive, not 4-wheel stop. (Ok, technically brakes can be on each wheel, but that still won’t help in sufficient lack-of-friction)

        True, but that’s what ABS is for. People don’t generally have issues in town. It’s when on the highway that people get stuck and unable to get out.

          I’ve definitely been going 10 mph in city, signaled to turn, tried to slow down, and just coasted past my turn because that’s how fresh snow over ice behaves. That’s with traction control and ABS.

      Traction control hinders me more than helps. But I drive a 2 door wrangler. Traction control on that thing is totally unnecessary.
