What about water/muck/leaves and so on? I was under the impression that's only true until the slick is running on a lower-resistance surface, so for example a slippery point in the road, mud or whatever. I thought that a bit of grip would dissipate, break the surface, allowing for some grip. Can never get my head around what's the best way to go for winter tyres.
