Wonder, where she left her winter driving abilities. Back in the day, when we lived in alpine Europe, she wouldn't blink at any amount of snow. Maybe too much watching the bitching baa-chans on J-tv; she believes everything they say despite her own experiences, unfortunately...
Sometimes I find the most dangerous thing on the road in snowy conditions is not the odd sheet of ice, but just other drivers. Perhaps Mrs Grumpy was being prudent in worrying about the other people on the road who are not used to snow and have not experienced alpine splendour.
