it make sense if you're on a bicycle - ditching it as soon as possible to reduce harm on your person.
but when it come to cars, going slowly, on a *slight *slope, sheer stupidty.
it only make sense if the cars is going silly mile per hours toward a cliff that you've no way of stopping, then naturally you should ditch it.
I hate it when people step on it like there's no tomorrow, as if that'll create traction, and it's worse in London where people came from countries where snow isn't in their language.
