I'm just passing on the views of a colleague. It was more of a case it's dark a lot and folk don't go out in winter. On 7 September 2011 12:23, Ross Jarvis <jarvmeister@gmail.com> wrote:
The advice available to UK travellers to Sweden states that you should avoid driving your own vehicle in Sweden during the winter months. Presumably because of the winter tyre issues.****

I'm sorry, but what a load of tosh! The last two winters we've had a few days when the state of the road and rail networks have been quite bad in random parts of the country, but that has been due to an extreme and unusual weather situation. There are certainly NOT "parts of the year when nothing happens in Sweden because of the weather". This isn't the arctic region, it's a civilised country, and no - opposite to popular belief we don't have icebears walking the streets either. (The only part of the year when nothing happens in Sweden is between 3 and 4 PM on Christmas Eve when every single person in Sweden sit down in front of the TV to watch old Disney cartoons).
You are however required to have special winter tyres from December 1 to March 31 if the temperature is below zero.

Sounds like great fun. Be careful what time of year you chose. We have an office in Helsingborg and there's certain parts of the year when nothing happens in Sweden because of the weather.
