Socks and snow chains - Roobarrb
I often have to drive home very late at night on ungritted country roads. I don't really like snow chains, but I have heard you can now get 'auto socks' a kind of woolly thing you put over your tyres to give more grip on packed snow and ice (honest!). Has anyone tried these? Do they work?
