Sometimes you don’t have a choice about when to drive. For me it was either drive or let my mother go without heat, because the 5 foot drift had blocked her furnace intake.
It reinforced my opinion that winter tires are nice to have but not completely necessary, though. I took it nice and slow and didn’t get stuck anywhere, though I had to walk the final 3 blocks to her house because a plow had created a 7 foot high pile of snow blocking her street that I figured my TL wasn’t going to punch through, winter tires or not
