The best vehicle in weather (assuming I could get it started), ice, and snow I've ever had was a '93 Topaz. It was more like a snowmobile than a car. It's more about the tires and the driving than how many wheels are involved in pulling.
There are weather situations where I trust my Corolla far more than I'd trust a 4wd Suburban (although I've seen them do some very impressive things in deep snow.)
If it's bad enough that they're not plowing the roads at all, it's bad enough to stay home. Short of that, 2wd cars with the right tires and sensible drivers get the job done as well as anything else on the road.
Not trying to give you a hard time on this, just saying it's not the CR/V that's keeping you safe. It's you. And your tires.
