Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Truck physics is most certainly the number one reported problem with this game. It needs to be re-done from scratch I think. However, your post is a new twist to the physics that nobody else reported, and is a good find. I can only assume that not many have had snow yet, and if so, didn't put it to the test as you did. I'll have to keep this in mind. That's good attention to detail.
