Arron yeates Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 I live on a hill and when it snows they dont grit it no one goes out in the cars and no one knows how to drive. The only snow marks are from my wheels lol i will drive in any weather with no issues just be safe and use your gears correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisheruk Posted January 16, 2020 Report Share Posted January 16, 2020 I have chains, shovel and track boards in my pickup. Only required once in last three years, but it is no good being in the position where you need them and finding they are sitting on the shelf in the garage. Come the end of March they’ll go back on the shelf in the garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern car tyres can't cope with snow as well as the old style tyres although they weren't great. Low profile tyres like the ones on my car are lethal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn`t that the truth, or when it snows for a long period of time, yet we still get people bleat on about it, if you want every last inch of snow and ice off pavement and road then please feel free to fund it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend in the Rockies where they can get five to six inches a night for weeks and still survive and get to work. It could be that over there they want to?
