We have salt on the major roads after the salt
trucks get there.
However, minor roads and such get cleaned and
salted last, if ever. So you inevitably get your
fair sure of totally "natural" driving. Snow tires
help too.
Again, my point wasn't to say "you should be as good
as us on snow" since we are more equipped to handle
it. However, all too many times I have seen a first-time-snow
driver say "oh my, this weather is awful" but still try
to drive at or near normal speeds.
