Why? Brakes works fine on snowy roads. Distances can be adjusted for snowy roads. It happens every winter where it snows a lot. I don't see a problem.

Not sudden random braking, no. The most important advice for driving on slippery surfaces is to avoid sudden braking, and in general to be careful when you brake.
