The people were jumping out of the car to SLOW THINGS DOWN. Of course it didn't work. But they weren't jumping out of fear. They wanted to use their body weight to decelerate things and while the idea is interesting, it won't help in a situation such as this. People who drive in snowy/icy conditions should be driving 80% slower than usual. Keep a prudent speed. Actually, go above and beyond a prudent speed!

At least you get snow; it hasn't snowed here in Bangladesh for 3 months.
