It is also the RCMP's discretion if your tires pose a safety concern to be driving based on road conditions, so even though they may be M+S marked with the minimum 3.5mm, they can still turn you away.

Around 4 pm, it was coming down pretty hard. But by 4:30, things died down and snow turned back to rain.

Smart man, they should sell those in a bundle pack with the snow shovels.

AzNightmare 11-03-2017 08:23 AM

Berz out.

Kudos to the various municipalities for salting / brining all the roads on short order. However, I still fxxking hate the fact that all the roads are now salted because I don't like what my cars don't like. :(

City of Vancouver says it's ready for winter (no, for real this time) | Daily Hive Vancouver

more salt and brine... maybe i should stop not recommending undercoating :fail:

yray 11-11-2017 07:24 AM

^now we really not gonna get any snow this year

MG1 11-11-2017 10:26 AM

If you're looking for ice scrapers, shovels, etc. Princess Auto is having a sale starting Tuesday on winter items. If you don't want to miss out, buy that shit now and go back next week and they will honour the sale prices. Kind of sneaky, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Only 20% off those items, but.

Only thing is, the Coquitlam location is the most ghetto of all PA, so they may not have any of it in stock. Langley, on the other hand...................

Ch28 11-11-2017 05:22 PM

I already picked up an ice scraper from Canadian Tire a few weeks back when it was on sale. That thing will be an absolute life saver to clear the driveway

Zedbra 11-14-2017 05:37 PM

It's puking snow just north of Squamish to Pemberton, it just started about 3:00pm. Earlier in the day, a group of 10 Porsche owners decided to do a trip to Whistler, well, they didn't make it out of Whistler as the popo had them pulled over and was ticketing all of them for not having snow tires. Not sure how they got home.
