Don't want to think about about what could have happened had I not had it on, or not had it at all
Nothing? Why should there be any difference with or without traction control? Unless you were trying to accelerate through the puddle, just let off the gas and "coast" through it.

IMO, I'd rather KNOW how to drive than rely on my car saving my a$$ and getting/keeping me out of trouble. I've made it through 2 pretty typical winters so far with my car and had no problem.....and NO trac control.
