Exactly. There is absolutely no excuse for being anywhere within 25 feet of my bumper when travelling down a hill in this weather. Morons. Winter tires just might be worth it so I can slam on my breaks next time.

Plan your route if possible. Even though it would be quicker I don't cross the Elbow River to get home, because my car can't handle that terrain. And if you can't avoid some steep hill, then buy winter tires. But making winter tires legally mandatory is ridiculous. What's next, mandatory fancy carbon fibre brakes because they stop faster?
