i'll wager many did not have winter tires ....

the new tire compounds remain softer in low temperatures and can reduce stopping distance ..

Even if they all had winter tires, at 100 km/hr on Highway 400 (or most Toronto highways) and two cars collide, the chain reaction gives each following car less time to brake

And in a whiteout they prob eh realize what happen until too late

true for the cars in the initial pile up ... if winter tires allows you to stop in a shorter distance and allows you to retain control of the vehicle during the braking process, then the likelihood of a crash is reduced .... instead of 100 cars, it might have been less than that ...

Good call, but people just don't drive according to the conditions. Is like they just dotish for spite. Ah see Fantino calling for laws to charge people who drive like jackass when the weather is bad.


ah gosh..leave ah lil early and take your time when the conditions bad.
