Also here is a link to a neat study saying driver education of new drivers doesn't work. Not perfectly relavent but still interesting

Probably. Most people have no idea of the concept of safe following distances or giving yourself extra time to stop in icy conditions. Drivers who bring their license from snow-less countries may never have been introduced to how to handle a vehicle safely on ice. I'm sure we could get a 10% drop with some basic education.
