Including the tire manufacturer where it says right on the sidewall 'not intended for winter use'.

And that is the guy that says "I'm such a rad awesome driver, I don't need snows." That guy is a frikkin tool shed.
I was just driving down Beddington and an SUV in front of me doing about 50 spun out while driving straight. I could have tried to purposely spun out and I don't think I would have been able to. Now I don't know if he was driving on all seasons or on summer tires but I guarantee you he didn't have all weather tires or winter tires.

Seriously, winter tires make a Yuge difference. Anyone denying this has never driven on winter tires.
