In winter, our roads are treated with a salt solution. Everything is treated—anything that a car might theoretically drive on and a person might walk on. As a result, everything turns white. Next weekend it’s going to be plus 12 degrees, so it will be possible to wash the car. But here’s what’s interesting: both the roads for cars and the footpaths are absolutely not slippery, even though 100% of the cars are on summer tires. Yesterday it was minus ten degrees, and even sudden braking is no different from braking in summer. The same was true in Moscow, they treat the roads with a similar nastiness, but it always used to be slippery. Another point—there’s absolutely no dirt. In summer, its absence is understandable: different soil plus roads are built smarter. But in winter! Even when there’s snow, there is none of that unpleasant slush that ruins shoes and trousers. School was cancelled again today, as it was supposed to rain, and the temperature was around zero. We’ll see;)
