Most of that is due to people who lived in the snow belt, that knew how to drive in the snow, that now have a vehicle running summer tires year round and on road not designed for snow/run-off that are not treated with salt or sand.
When I was in the military I had the joy of taking a class in winter driving at Ft Richardson AK. What was fun was the ice road training class. I also got cross country ski lessons from the military. It made perfect since as I was stationed at MacDill in Tampa FL.
Anytime there is the slightest accumulation on the road the truck is parked and it has to be almost life threatening for me to venture out in the Fusion (it has LS on the front wheel drive).
