Abstract: It is known that in most scenarios, drivers lack complete control over their speed while they are skidding on ice, despite being able to affect their direction using the steering wheel. This invention solves the problem by forcing out small ethylene vinyl acetate suction cups from inside the tires when the brake is pressed, allowing the car to slow. Background of the Invention Drivers have been known to lack complete control over their speed while driving over ice. Over the past several years, accidents have been know n to occur due to road ice issues, which are driving issues that occur while one or more vehicles move over ice on the road.  Several different possible designs have been used, such as cleats on the wheels. Obviously, a more sophisticated yet simple design must be used.
