Last night was looking good so I decided to take the S out. All the roads were paved and it wasn't raining. A little after midnight, I got caught in the brief snow storm on my way home. I was up on a hill and the light turned red. I braked and the car comes to a stop. Then my car started to slide backwards, with my brakes fully applied. I pulled my ebrake and my car kept sliding. Luckily no one was behind me so I gave it some gas but then VSA came on. It wouldn't let me go past 10km/hr. I was really lucky no one was behind me.
Either you were stopped on ice or your brakes are faulty?!?!?!

I think it was ice. I know my front brakes have to be replaced soon but that doesn't explain the e-brake not working either.
