How many drivers in this group actually fit winter tyres?


My hunch is......not many.

Because (a) TV presenters are not authorities on driving and (b) you
don't pay attention.

They have been mentioned on both TV and radio. Over and over again.
Probably not on the sort of mind-bending drivel that you soak up on your
couch. Radio 4 had quite a lenghy discussion at the start of the

Blathering about your lack of observation and lack of clue doesn't mean
that winter tyres are useless. It does mean that you are useless.

useless.

I'm useless simply because I can manage in snow and ice without winter
tyres?
