Everyone in Ottawa decided to stay home this morning despite the storm in the evening. No traffic on the way to work, did not crash!

If you're on summer tires you just need to drive SUPER EXTRA careful in those conditions and you'll be fine.

I drove my FRS downtown to get a haircut. The only time I had to back up, I had the whole street to do it in. Did not crash -

I rated them "can't get out of my apartment complex, because it has a slight 30ft long slope". I did make it about 2/3 of the way before the rear tires called it quits. Used my road bike instead.
