Default What happened to my Icy Road/Hill post ?

I was looking for info regarding decending icy roads/hills.

Since the brakes do very little work and the majority is done by re-generative braking.

I was wondering if applying the brakes will cause the car to swerve to the left or right since the wheels may still want to turn ??

Priuschat had a problem where theads were sorting alphabetically rather than by date. That's probably why you had trouble finding them.
