I was walking around the DAy Lot in Whistler. 80% of the cars Don't even have Snow/winter tire on. Isn't there a sign saying " Winter tire is mandatory beyond this point from oct30 to april 1"??

So, come on... Please dont make me stuck at sea to sky because u people,with all season ( hard as brick at low temp ), ran over a sheet of black ice, spinned a 720, rolled over 3 times, 90 degree fishtail, mary-go-round and caused a multiple crash.

:thumbsup:

* Also , if they do set up a road block, u get ticket for not having winter tire or chain + u need to pay to get ur car tow up the hill.

i don't think he thought that far ahead yet! haha.


all season tires are OK but a lot of people just don't know how to drive. I do run studded winter tires though and they are awesome. I like passing 4wd suvs in my fwd honda.

Pffff...

Unless the RCMP enforce it they might as well toss the sign

i was up there today too...a greyhound must have been trying to keep a schedule becuase he blasted past me uphill going 120+ km/h

When you see a greyhound blasting at 120+ km/h, you should follow its speed. Those buses have radar detectors.

my car is incapable of over 90 uphill :haha:

There was a dodge dually 3500 ram with a ginormous trailer behind it that passed me going up hill as well :p

[maxx]

sometimes, there are roadblocks at Cypress which require either
a) snow tires
b) 4x4
c)chains

everyone else goes home

[orange7]

:werd: I'm a pussy, the astra now has winter tires on it, and looking for a used set for the Z... but still All season is enough for say richmond... but then it's all c-lais so even winter tires won't help...

[falcon]

I'm heading up on Blackcomb opening day. It's going to be an epic day of fresh tracks through the glades in 7th heaven.

I hate Whistler Mnt...

except you have to go uphill to school in east van...

[Mancini]

Agreed. Snow tires should be mandatory. At least if your driving something like that stretch of road or the Coquihalla. Non-compliance should be ticketed.

[q0192837465]

u should blame tire manufacturers to use the word "all season" cuz it literally means it can be used 365 days a year. Until the government put a ban on tire manufacturers to use the term all-season, I dun think it's fair to make snow tires mandatory cuz we all know the general public is worse than stupid.

Would you like a tissue?

I like the way you think

Pffff...
