thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Description. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is a rare disorder that causes blood clots (thrombi) to form in small blood vessels throughout the body. These clots can cause serious medical problems if they block vessels and restrict blood flow to organs such as the brain, kidneys, and heart.
âTHE MOST IMPORTANT DRIVING TECHNIQUE TO AVOID CRASHES WHEN DRIVING IN ICY OR SNOWY CONDITIONS IS REDUCING SPEED AND INCREASING FOLLOWING DISTANCEâ. When you are driving on ice, you have to keep in mind that your wheels don't have as much traction as they do when you are driving on dry pavement.
Though traction control and stability control help keep the car moving and prevent fishtailing, respectively, rear-wheel drive is still the worst choice on snowy roads. What makes the car handle well in most cases â having its weight balanced over the front and rear wheels â doesn't provide optimal traction in snow.
