"This is contracy to the basic theories of friction and at odds with the reported behavior of vehicles on either wet or dry pavements," Prince reported. "Once a skid starts, vehicle weight shouldn't make a difference. But in the case of vehicles on glare ice, a difference has been well established." A sub-compact car is likely to require a shorter distance in a panic stop on ice than a compact car. A compact car, in turn, is likely to require a shorter distance than a standard stan-dard car, according to committee com-mittee findings. That's good news for the compact and sub-compact car drivers, Prince pointed out, because stopping distances for I It's the friends we have make our happy!

"But things aren't all in favor of the smaller car driver," Prince warned. "Once stopped, lighter cars have notably difficulty getting back into motion once again, particularly at warmer ice temperatures or when ice has become highly polished, such as at intersections."
