Whenever I've had to be out and about during or soon after big storms, a majority of the vehicles I've seen stuck were 4WD or at least SUV type vehicles. Of course, that observation does not mean those get stuck more readily than others, but it might mean that their drivers are more likely to be on the road under such conditions. mcneely
