Would you recommend snow socks for driving on snow?
Do you have any experience of using "Snow Socks" when conditions are slippery and snowy? If so, do you recommend using them?

The idea is that their fibres pick up loose snow and than use that snow to provide traction against snow. They work. But, of course, have to be removed as soon as you reach a solid surface or they will get ripped to bits.
