Interestingly, here the days of particularly challenging weather are specially quiet. Those who can afford not driving stay away from the roads and those who drive are extra cautious, making it comfortable for cyclists. On the other hand, an average winter day tends to be so-so, with cars wobbling and inexperienced drivers often failing to adjust their driving to the combination of their skills and circumstances. The latter is particularly true in the early days of the season.
