The real answer is: The guy in the Jeep did not know how to drive on ice.
He was spinning his tires which gives zero traction and heats the tires so that they slip even more on the ice. Taking it slow and gracefully, the Solara went right around him AFTER coming to a complete stop on the ice while wondering what the hell is wrong with this guy...
And I live in Colorado - Anyone want to guess what kind of cars can be found in the ditch FAR MORE than other cars? -> Four Wheel Drive!
That is because once you put someone in a 4WD SUV, they think they are now immune to the laws of Physics and act even more reckless.
And I have lived in CO all my life and learned to drive in the snow.
I have never ONCE changed to "snow tires" I run all season.
The Solara has Goodyear assurances (best all season tire I have ever had).
I have no idea what the jeep had on it since all four tires were spinning....
