My worst close-calls were a result of ABS engaging at very low speed. In all cases, I reduced the speed to 2-3 MPH approaching a snowy intersection, but the car refused to let the wheels lock and "sink" in the snow.

Instead, it's all too happy to drift into oncoming traffic at a glacial pace. It could be specific to the various Toyotas I have owned...

Technology is defined as that thing which almost works correctly.

Sorry to hear you had that experience! I've lived places where the "sink into the snow" was the right thing, but where I live now, there's very likely ice under the snow, so it's not clear if that would help.
