Zebra, thats the craziest thing i have ever heard.

This is the simplest method, okay, First of all check if the temperatures are below freezing or anywhere near it, if they are, expect ice. Now if you expect ice, now this is important, SLOW DOWN! Allow yourself extra space to slow down.

Just yesterday i was going 10 mph and i tried to stop at a stop sign, i started slowing down much earlier than usual and i still sailed through the stop sign. Thank god nobody was there cuz cross traffic didn't have to stop. i have never used chains on a car, nor would i even know where to get them. Add weight to the back of your stang, 100-150lbs should be good that will help a little. But the biggest tip i can giv eyou is to slow down.
