Yep that's why pretty much everyone with winter tires has never gotten into an accident in the winter.
I don't know how OH makes their shoulders on the highway but we don't have 100' of pavement on either side of the exit ramps to stop for ice, to go 10' or less to one side your in the ditch, guardrail, or tree.
Practical? Walking across an ice rink flat is easy, walking across a parking lot covered in wet bumpy ice is difficult to keep your balance because your sliding down bumps in all different directions. Their cars wouldn't have stopped all nice and straight, they would have stopped angled, sideways, and backward like cars do when they spin out on ice because road ice is not all nice and flat.
