No one can explain why that happened to me as I have front wheel drive as well. I couldn't even recreate how I managed it, I could barely do anything more than a pathetically small fish tail if it could even be termed that. It was like the leaves lifted me up and did it on their own.
FWD does not "stop" sliding on leaves/ice/snow. FWD is good for start up traction.
Same apply's to 4WD's slipping and sliding. I used to pass a collision shop in the winter, and after every snow/ice storm, the lot in front of the shop was filled with 4WD's all smashed up. 4WD's have great traction in ice/snow, but they slip & slide just like regular car's/trucks trying to stop fast on ice. (ABS can only do so much)
