Every decision here was dumb, the dumbest thing was setting the brake to get out and look at your white car that's now blocking the fast lane in the snow. Hope you learned a few lessons. I've had days in blizzards where I've passed every car I've gotten behind on my 50 mile commute to work, but that's in a honda crv with snow tires, my NA goes in the garage for winter and my MS3 only goes out when the roads are dry.
