As much as you may dislike it, there is a price on human life, as well as a 
price on disruption and delays.  Would you choose that 60 million people 
were all delayed by an extra 30 minutes every day to save one single life? 
Where do you draw the line?  The line has already been drawn, and it's not 
worth countries that get snow/ice infrequently using studded tyres.
