No, but your headlights that burn at a higher temperature than the sun are illegal. Can believe nothing has melted yet...

I dont know about everyone but my fwd slides easily. I see some newer fwd hook up alot better then I do. Then again my car is 20 years old.

Yup, you are right. I got a ticket way back in the day for sliding sideways like 2 ft in a parking lot with a pickup. Sucked.

Quattro + Blizzak FTMFW. Late last nite was the best driving of the entire season. Several parking lots were brutally violated. All manners of vehicular debauchery were committed. Roads (even interstates) were totally empty, and no plows had been out yet.

I know I ripped around in my RWD car for about an hour. Got it to do almost axis spins in my parking lot for a couple mins straight...needless to say it ended up dry pavement after a short bit.

Then we took out a hood, and attached it to a buddy's diesel pickup and towed some people on the streets, parking lots etc.

Driving home in my RWD car was hell though. I think I got stuck like 4 times in like a 6 block area. Hills FTMFL. At one point, I tried moving and my car just completely lost its ass and the rear end just slid completely down into a gutter.

No possible way to injure bystanders unless they are retarded and decide that walking/driving by a car spinning in circles is a smart idea...

Naturally there are exceptions.. but it's something to ponder.

I see ppl getting pulled over for it all the time on campus, luckily me and my friends havent gotten nailed for it.

Shit, I had no problems at all this morning. I thought the interstate interchange was just fine. There wasn't even snow!

I am kinda scared on how the lowered Honda will handle the extra snow at lunch though.

Last time it snowed all i could hear was snow scraping along the bottom of my CRX, what really sucks is hitting the chunks of snow/ice that falls off cars, every once and a while I hear them pinging off my exhaust. I do have to say I busted a few good size drifts that were on campus last weekend. But the less I have to drive the better (lowered hondas FTL right now). And living on campus not having to worry bout driving to class FTW!
