right where the road turns too, i came pretty close to rolling down my window and yelling at her to GTFO, even a little bit of traction loss and i could have gone sailing right into her.
what a moron

Our “All-Weather Plus” Nokian WRG2 and Nokian WRG2 SUV offer the best performance in every season. These tires include the “severe service emblem” indicating that they are highly effective in winter driving conditions. But unlike other winter tires, they do not need to be removed during the summer. Drivers in areas that experience winter can now have one set of tires that will work for all seasons.

Q. Are "all weather" tires winter tires?
A. The all weather tire is another designation that’s thrown around especially by a couple of brand names. It’s a tire that’s just soft enough or just pliable enough to qualify as a winter tire that’s in the compound of the tread blocks, but designed to be used all year long, more like an all season. The problem is that it’s not perfect at either thing. It’s still too hard to be fully optimized as a winter tire. You’re better off getting a pure winter tire.

Can't wait till skytrain breaks down during rush hours! Then ppl will be waiting in the station for 3hours and bitch!
Hopefully then transit will then improve their service.
