How many buses in London have winter tyres fitted?


Carefully driven, they aren't necessary to drive on slush on a gritted
road, as was evidenced by the number of lorries and commuter coaches
that continued to drive around central London this morning, the only
problem being those walking by the road getting an occasional splash
of slush.

Then again, I did say carefully driven, which is not exactly a term I
would use to describe many London buses, unfortunately...
