ChrisKH said:Ditto. I don't have the equipment and why is it necessary when it snows for a couple of days once a year?
Ice on the other hand I need to be prepared for. I came off this morning; first ice of the year for me.

BrumJim said:I heard a rumour that on the first day of snow every year, the Scandinavians also suffer with silly drivers and lots of sliding. However in a day or two, everyone gets the hang of it, and the rest of winter is well-ordered and sensible with respect to driving.
In the UK, we only get a day or two of snow before it clears, and then not every year, hence we are always suffering from first day madness, and never get beyond this.
Can any Norwegians/Finns confirm or deny this?
