Explain why ears skid on curves when the road is icy?

When a car is on a curve, centrifugal force tends to force it outwards. Normally, this force is resisted by the car's tires gripping the road surface. However, ice on the road reduces the friction and therefore the tires cannot grip so well.

Does friction have any role to play in snow clad areas?

As snow becomes hard and packed it can be very slippery. The coefficent of friciton is then less then when the tires are on pavement which means that the "sticky" force is not as great holding the tires and the snow covered road together. In these conditions the car tires begin to slip as they try to grip onto the road but the static frictional force to get the car going is not there and as a result the car tires spin in the snow.
