That's not very fair. There are more issues than just one's own ability to cope with "a couple of inches". Risk management comes into it when you start to consider other people's competence (or lack of it).
I was stuck in weather-affected traffic yesterday. While moving at walking pace, someone slammed into me from a side road because she couldn't stop.
Today, did the same journey over the ice-sheet backroads near Sabden. Those roads were empty, so even though it was more slippy than the main road, I only had my own competence (or lack of it) to worry about. If the journey wasn't necessary, I'd have stayed at home.
