just off to the left of the camera's view, because she took 2 lanes to turn and at such a slow pace, cars were stopping and lining up waiting for her, which eventually everyone drove around, she was literally an obstacle on the road.

I wonder if it will snow in Richmond/Vancouver - I was looking at historical data and it has never had any accumulation of snow this early in November.
I don't even put my snow tires on until mid-November every year!

Not sticking at the moment.

Once I see a week with an average of 7 degrees or less, it's the weekend before that I put on my tires.
I put on my tires just yesterday because of this week's forecast.

I think the main difference is how unprepared us Westcoasters are with snowing.
Learning how to drive properly in the snow is a skill many Westcoasters lack.

Ya it doesn’t snow much here so we don’t get the practice people from Alberta do.. 
Plus its mountainous here compared to Alberta.
I was born in Alberta and wouldn’t make such a dumb comparison between driver skill. Aside from the snow itself we’re comparing apples and oranges here

I'm with CRS. 7 degrees or lower is when I look into changing over to winters.

When the first snowfall hits, there are always 500+ accidents on day 1. You would think they would learn year after year but nope.

I learned how to drive safely with snow and also what's the do's/don'ts in snowy condition from my landlord in ON when I first got there. Everything from how braking, accelerating and maneuvering differ normally vs. in snow... 15min with snow in an empty parking lot packed with powder was all it took.
So I assume anyone in snowy areas just know them because everyone knew them.

Oh yeah Albertans are great winter drivers. Every time I drive Hwy 16 in the winter the ditches are littered with cars.

Snow driving shouldn't be harder per se, just different set of physics people need to understand. Can't be driving the same way like it's dry or wet. But having proper winter tires are a huge factor.
I was planning to put my winter tires on the weekend, but I forgot I have a day off today... so maybe I'll do it today.
