Granted, when it's snowy/icy, I drive much more slowly, and kinda coast into stop lights/signs to avoid the brake pedal as much as possible, but still - I've never had issues controlling my car.
So if you can control your car, might as well disable ABS if you REALLY know how to drive. That way you won't stop way too late from abs, and you wont go sideways since we know how to drive.

Also my reason for disabling ABS wasn't because of not knowing how to drive(it rarely activates for me), it was how it responds in icy situations, and how it isn't the best approach.
