Does traction control of a car makes a car behave like a four wheel drive?

no.... traction control is where the vehicle will sense were its loosing its traction either the right driver side wheel or the back driver side wheel and it will reduce the torque to that wheel so it can gain traction again,

Why does car stall with traction control?
Some traction control systems back off the engine throttle when a certain amount of wheel spin is detected; when over-done, this often makes the car feel as if the engine has stalled. My '05 Honda Accord Hybrid has such a system and it's bad to the point of being unsafe. You'll get halfway through an intersection and the car just stops moving. It won't start again until the gas pedal has been released for a second or two, but you have to turn off the traction control in order to get going in a reasonable amount of time. In a recent storm, the traffic light changed while I was trying to disengage the stupid thing. I should add that not all traction control systems behave this way; my '99 Chrysler LHS had excellent traction control that only had to be disabled once or twice a year (when the snow got really sticky). I've heard that the worst traction control systems are on Toyota Priuses.

What does the TICS light on a Honda car mean?
I have a Honda and never seen a TICS light on it (or any previous Honda I have had), perhaps you meant TCS light (which my current Honda and the 2 previous ones have).The TCS light is the Traction Control System light and comes one when the computer detects that the wheels are losing traction on ice or snow, The wheel(s) that have lost traction are drive wheels that suddenly spin much faster than their opposite partner(s). To correct this the computer briefly automatically applies the brake on just this wheel(s) then releases the brake to see if traction is restored. The TCS light is on during each of these braking events.This is an automatic system and should be allowed to do what it needs to do (i.e. do not brake yourself, which may trigger a skid) however if the light persists ease up on the gas a little to reduce the chance of losing traction on the ice and snow.This is all explained in the user's manual. Traction Control Systems have become common on many makes of cars, not just Hondas.

Alcohol causes you to become disoriented. Marijuana makes you sleepy. If you drive while on alcohol you cant control the car or your speed. Marijuana can make you drive slower.
