Lol, yes. I imagine how that would be if you’ve never had to consider changing tires according to seasons.
In Quebec, it has become illegal to drive without winter tires between Dec 15 and March15 for a number of years now. Last tear they changed it to Dec First. It used to be we’d pretend so called 4 season tires would do the job but science proved that wrong and it’s better to deal with snow and especially ice with the proper treads. An icy patch is still there to trick you, it’s still not the end of the story… lol
My last two cars were totaled because of collisions on icy roads…
