No need for snow tires down here in central south texas, we either have dust, mud or ice (ranked in most common). We also only have ice for about one or two weeks out of the year, leaving just enough time for people to wrap their cars around trees and telephone poles. I dont even count anymore how often I hear "well I could drive on the ice back home no problem."

Yep you got that right about the weather down there!
I have played down there and worked there too!
Best thing I have learned in any of the soutern states and ice is just stay off the roads! It's more comical to watch people drive on that stuff than anything else. I guess no matter where a person lives it's just plain good common sense to stay off the roads when they are icy!
