Out-of-towner here! I haven’t even SEEN snow since I lived up north 25 years ago, and definitely never had to drive in it. My only “experience” with what I should do is what I see in movies and what I hear from older folk down south who say “drivin’ in snow ain’t nothin’! All you need is to throw on some chains and you’re good to go!”
That being said, if I ever actually find a house in a place that has winters, actual research is the first thing I would do… but I suppose some folk just stick to whatever they have heard?
