deaths from false positives (Score 1)

I live in Alaska. Often there is half a foot of snow on the road over the ice formed by driving on a previous snowfall. I drive slowly, but sometimes I still slide a little and need to swerve to correct. It would be quite an issue for my truck to shut itself down in the -50F weather we get occasionally. It sounds like buying a Toyota would be a good way to freeze to death. No thanks.
