It’s just solid common sense. Drivers need to be reminded to use some once in a while to avoid dangerous situations like snow.

But front wheel drive and rear wheel drive cars handle snow differently.

As an Australian, the only "snow" I've driven on involved a bag and a straw while I was at the wheel.

One of the reasons I live in place that ‘snows’ maybe once or twice a year. Snowflakes in the morning, all melted away by the afternoon. No shoveling out the car to go to work, no driving on snow, no sliding on black ice, no getting rock salt or sand inside the house.

I’d rather fly somewhere to experience the fun of snow without the drudgery of living with it.

Lol. I vote this as the most useful topic posted on a Cambodian forum. Have you even tried explaining snow to Cambodians ? I can't even explain what it's like to be really "cold". :shrug: It does not compute.
