On a scale from 1 to UK, how cucked does traffic get in your country when the first snow hits?
>>
>>67054356
If snow falls we literally stop driving. Some people have to stay in hotels. We have zero preparation for snow and ice.

It rarely snows. Maybe one day every other year.
>>
Snow doesn't hit were I live.
But the first heavy rains usually fuck up the place.
>>

Roads get cleared quickly but sometimes there isn't enough salt on the road.

A couple of inches can shut this country down, bizarre really
>>
>>67054356
An inch of snow makes the country go full retard, thankfully we rarely get more than a few days of snow each year.
>>
>>67054404
I noticed that when it rains here your roads feel like they have ice on them. Why don't you guys fix this?
>>
>>67054793
Londoners never got snow in their home country.
>>
>>67054356
We go in complete lockdown as soon as the first snow flake is spotted. The following days it gets back to normal, with just a bit more traffic jams. We ain't got time to stop and our infrastructure is second to none, so we manage to continue to work even without experience in the snow.
>>
get snow every year

and every year people magically forget how to drive
>>
every year snow fucks us and every year the media complain about the government not doing anything about the snow and every year the government promises to be prepared next year

in eastern poland its worse

no seriously most of eastern poland has shitty commie era roads and almost no railways to compensate

if we could domesticate bears and just ride them everywhere it would be very practical

there's always a bunch of idiots on summer tires gotten into accidents and long queues in tire shops about a day before and after the day

Even in remote mountainroads where the snow doesnt get cleared people just have chains with them to put on their wheels

>>67055561
Here lots of idiots on winter tyres crash, because they have grip like normal with their winter tyres on snow. Lots of people use summer tyres or all weathers all year long, most of them stay pretty safe because they know grip is very limited

They are trying to make them mandatory here.
>>
>>67056092
Winter tires are pretty much mandatory here (not by law but by common sense). When this year there was an unexpected snowfall in early october, I almost crashed twice in a relatively short trip because my summer tires didn't grip the road whatsoever.

our problem is foreign truck drivers who still drive on summer tyres when they're gonna deliver in Norway during winter

they always cause some problems

I'd say we're notorious for this bc we actually get snow just infrequently enough to be dumbarses about it. Everyone else who'd also be a dumbarse probably diesn't get enough snow regularly for stereotypes to build.

With that said we fucking suck at snow

Lul.

It's amazing how much this country shuts down at the sight of a single snowflake.

Basically the Madagascar of snow.

We close schools when it's snowing more than 5cm

2/10. The only real problem is shitty chink drivers that can't drive properly and either crash, or only do 10 because they know they'll crash.

That's not a seasonal thing though, they shit up the roads all year.
