I think that AWD actually gets some drivers into trouble...
The AWD gives much better "go" and, as a result, some drivers don't realize how slick the road is until they try to stop. Without AWD, you know pretty fast how slippery things are when your real wheels slip when you try to take off from a stop, i.e., AWD gives some drivers inappropriate confidence on slippery roads, particularly if it is their first AWD or 4WD vehicle.
