I think that I've said this elsewhere, but here goes if not, depending on location in UK 999 services might fit winter tyres, couriers on the other hand don't make money if they can't deliver so they do fit winter tyres! I have Michelin Pilot/Premacy summer tyres to thank for me starting to use Michelin Alpins, these summer tyres can be lethal in cold wet icy conditions and my local Costco guys always now warn about planning to use these Michelin summer tyres in winter!
Getting enough grip to get moving in winter is one thing, having enough grip to steer and brake does help, winter tyres tend to give you that. Remember winter tyres are not just snow tyres they are also cold wet weather tyres!
