^ Or there's no such thing as a "slow Lane" when it's fucking snowing. Why would you even drive so fast at this weather regardless if you have snow tires or not.

I was out there for a 7-Eleven run, and my General Altimax tires grip like a monkey! I had a nice go in an empty lot for a minute

Just got back home coming from granville street heading southbound and saw 2 Masserati GT's identical White w/ black rims parked on the side lol. 1 was near 49th and granville and the other was like down near granville and 60th. Thought I was tripping out when I saw it again on 60th

Even if there is winter tires for buses. i bet you it's not going to help. think of towing a trailer and having the trailer part push your car or truck. Do you think it will go anywhere?? same concept just bigger scale.
They do make snow tires for trucks and buses, but they're hella expensive. My company was looking into them for our trucks this year since it was supposed to be the worst winter in 50 years, guess it's good that we saved our money lol

I was going to drive to Surrey Memorial from Vancouver at 530am but my clinical is canceled so now I'm awake playing games. At least one fellow RSer benefited from this snow. =)
