BQ: Was it a fire drill or was it a real fire emergency and where did it take place?
It would take a big, very long, fire hose to fit around my waist. I don't wear socks or shoes, the only terror would be those below me.
Go for copmarisons of different brands and models. I would advise against studded tires, as they tear up the roads, compromise the structure of your tire, are not legal in some areas at certain times, and hurt the performance of your car on dry roads, such as in a panic-stop situation.
Studded tires, legally only Nov.-March, I think.
