Yeah, of course that's true, but Germany didn't have enough salt last winter (lasted till end of January if I recall correctly). I recall politians talking about starting ordering salt earlier and keeping bigger reserves, etc.. But instead of learning and ordering more salt in advance they didn't have enough to even last December this year.

Anyway, even if they find an excuse for not having enough salt, there's no excuse for not even ploughing the snow. On the upside SUV sales will sky-rocket after this winter

But at least Germany has billions to spend on prestige and unneccessary projects - who cares about roads?
