I lived there.
Twice I've come up the Merritt and Cross Parkways following plow drivers who would block people from passing them. Both times the temps were just below freezing, with wet snow, and the drivers were plowing the pavement bare. But they didn't have their sanding/salting units running so it promptly turned into a skating rink.
Ahead of the plows the 3 inches or so on the road was perfectly safe to drive at about 40-45, at least with snow tires. But even on regular tires it was better than the ice behind the plows.
