Here in Finland at winter time if your winter tyres arent brand new and you dirve an older car with no abs (like my old vauxahall astra) cadence braking is a must. There has been a couple of close calls, like driving out of the road at 60mph. In my opinion the engine braking, atleast on FWD cars is not too good as it locks the tyres on very slippery surfaces...
