Have you tried to slow down to match the condition? You test braking distance on a quiet clear stretch of road.

I always test it out too,nice bit of clear road just try bit of braking,turning sharply to see how car responds so as to get a fell of how you will do in slippy conditions

Maniac Nigel had better stay out of my way - just tried out my new car on a bit of clear road with hardpacked snow - the ABS and ESP work fine you keep sliding in a straight line

I'm the same, nice bit of open/clear road with lots of snow on it, rear wheel drive car, plenty of gas, great for practising power slides and skid control
Seriously, everyone needs to know how their car handles in a skid and how to correct it, this isn't a boy racer stunt, it might help me out in an emergency
