You won't get anywhere over here without winter tyres but they don't help at all on ice.
The council still have to salt the roads.
Some places they just use sand which is great for not having our cars rust out but not great for the sewers.
They mostly use sand out in the country and salt in the Cities.
I use all season radials on my truck but the wife swaps out her tyres for snow tyres in Nov. Plus, she has an all wheel drive car.
In the UK we have about four days of weather vaguely approaching proper “winter” yet the councils chuck this corrosive shite all over the roads unnecessarily from November til about March. It does my nut in, I’m convinced it’s bent as fuck, some job creation scheme cooked up by local governments and Big Salt.
