That T no Sugar fellow is such a wheeze eh? Where did he come from I wonder, central casting for morons perhaps?
As an aside on this issue and I realise it is very unscentific, consider this if you will;
As you drive your car carefully around a slight bend on the icy road, you encounter a patch of ice which upsets your equilibrium; what do you do in response? a: Swing the wheel repeatedly and fully from side to side to try to regain control, or b: squeeze in a bit of into-skid wheel and reduce the power a little?
B gets you home, a gets you in the ditch. Quite simple really.
