Over here a drivers course for snow is mandatory for all young drivers in the first year after they get their drivers license.
I see good results from those courses and think that in our region they do pay off. I found out that being able to control your vehicle well under these circumstances helps in avoiding stupid drivers trying to hit you.

That vid has been around for a while, and the driver mats the throttle, thats why it breaks. Those trucks use a traction control system that is not effective at WOT. OE-operator error.

Interesting. I had always figured it was the mid life crisis ladies that thought they might take their "car" off road again.
There is a lady (mid 50's) that walks the treadmill next to the stairs I use in the mornings. She has a Landrover discovery loaded, her husband drives an H2, she said she put her landrover in 4x4 the other day for the first time (it had snowed). She considered taking the landrover school when she got the truck, but never did. Seems like a waste of a good 4x4 to me...
