For sure and I make sure if the road conditions are bad (really icy) to leave a lot of distance between me and the driver ahead of me. I know what my vehicle can or can't do in winter or icy conditions. I appreciate the fact that AWD doesn't mean you can stop on a dime or that I can always accelerate quickly in bad road conditions.
Many of the accidents you see in winter are caused by drivers not driving for the conditions. That doesn't mean winters won't reduce that, it's just that I think teaching people how to drive for the conditions would make the roads a lot safer to drive on also.
