Try driving with chains on a normal road   

Did that all the time when I had my tow truck. In fact it had all kinds of chains in every compartment. What was so difficult about that?

If you go too fast they break on dry pavement. Worse yet, they break and mess up your truck/car.

Go as far North as Chicago or Detroit, and unless it's a car that came with summer tires, almost no one is riding on winters.

That is why you get all those cars sliding and crashing on Interstate entry/exit ramps and getting gridlocked on the Interstate. In Austria/Switzerland/Germany it is mandatory to use winter tires during winter. In USA fools drive in old bald all seasons during winter and you get 100 car pileups during snowfalls on the interstate.

This! You don't get to do this in EU. And for a damn good reason, I've known too many people crash their car in winter because of the "but I don't NEED to use winter tires" attitude. It should be a requirement. Don't wanna pay for winter tires? Ok, you will pay 10x more when cops pull you over.
