People here do not know anything about cars or winter driving. This is just a large rear spoiler fin covered in a dusting of snow. Spoilers on cars are not just for show. My Subaru WRX has a spoiler and it adds aerodynamic down force for better traction. In winter weather a large spoiler like this will make driving feel like there isn't even ice on the road. Laugh now, but you won't be laughing when this guy zips by you at 120km/h while you are struggling on the ice.
You're right, I won't be laughing when this guy zips by me, shedding huge chunks of his shit directly onto my windshield on the road. If you want downforce, get an actual rear spoiler.
The second sentence addresses your suggestion.
Oh, thanks! I misunderstood.
I'm pretty sure the person you responded to was shitposting about the snow being a spoiler, including implying they'd be going by at 120 while other vehicles struggle on the ice
Yeah, fair enough. I've come across so many people driving oversized snowballs over the past week and I guess I'm still fuming lol
