One winter I was storm stayed in Swift Current, SK.
When the highway opened all was going along fine.
In the distance I saw a Semi that had been pulled out of the ditch and was pointing the wrong way.
I tapped on the brakes, and nothing happened. I tried a 2nd time and the least bit of pressure locked the wheels up. There was so little friction that the antilock brakes did not work.
Then the RV started drifting towards the ditch. I turned the wheel a tiny amount and nothing happened.
Finally at about 30 kph (18 miles per hour) I felt the front wheels "grab", and I was able to steer away from the semi truck which was now just 1000 feet from me.
The rest of the trip was done at a very sedate rate.
