Its only a bit of snow

[Dum-Dum]

Winter tyres aren't necessary either, people just need educating.

I used to think this but now having winter tyres Id disagree. I can happily drive in the snow and on ice on normal tyres without getting stuck but these are epic, the car hauls up hills I was struggling to walk up.

yeah educating to get winter tyres!!

most other european countries that have snow regularly you will find drivers have all got two sets of wheels as the norm...one for summer and one for winter...

and we dont see them have national crisis when it snows

Do you see the flaw in your argument there?

We have about 5 days of snow out of 364. What would be the point in buying a new set of tyres for those 5 days?

Winter tyres are good as soon as the temperature gets below about 10*C which is actually a good few months of the year
