Yup, try to never stop/brake until you’re at your destination, if possible. Intersections are notorious icy spots as stopped cars waiting for the light to change can melt a thin layer of snow/ice. Which the refreezes one the car leaves. It’s much better, if possible, to look ahead and coast some to time the intersection to slowly pass through without stopping.

This limits brake use, which reduces chance of sliding out, which reduces the chance of crashing. Plus, looking ahead is always a good idea for driving, regardless of if it’s storming out.
