Argument at work to day, traction control on or off in snow answers please. I say off.
If you are a real man then any chance to go sideways or handbrake slide into that parking space in Tescos should be grabbed.
So too the chance to spray snow over the unsuspecting.
Seriously though if you have 4x4 and a heavy car then leave it on if you can, if you are a T#at in a BMW then best off if you want to move anywhere, although i guess if the wheels at the back are the one driving you then it is best to keep it in the garage and get your walking boots on.

Received wisdom from a far better and more experienced driver than me.
If it won't roll - TCS Off. Back on when you're rolling. If you have switchable ABS (unusual these days) off at the last second to help the front wheels dig into snow. If it's icy then leave it on. Lastly and verbatim "If anybody is so **** thick that they can't balance the **** clutch and throttle and feel for wheelspin they should **** walk."
