Recently many people in northern China, including foreigners, have been greatly impressed by the heavy snow. Each year the news of snow arouses little joy in white collar circles who have been engaged in the business world for too long time and hungry for changes like a fresher and whiter world. In some places of Henan, central province in China, the snow has piled themselves up to 30cm within two days. Owing to slippery icy road, some people stayed at home as possible as they could, but there were always reasons for others who wanted to challenge this sever weather.

After the second heavy snow, I had to go to the lighting market for my new house under interior decoration. On my way to the bus stop I really wished there would be aluminum tread plate under my shoes. Although much snow had melted after emergent melting measures, the road was filled with water and ice. The bus was not crowded at all, and the driver kept reminding passengers to “beware of slip” when they got on the bus. It suddenly occurred to me that it might be a good idea for bus manufacturers to add a flexible to the bus, just like that for trains. The driver would press the button to put the plate down in case of need and have it back after passengers have got on.

I finally spotted aluminum tread plates in the lighting market. There were so many of them. They spread between alleys and in front of shop doors. You may fail to notice a piece of aluminum tread plate in normal fine days, but it attracts your attention easily on snowy slippery road, offering a strong sense of safety you are looking for. Of course, they would not be so ubiquitous if not for the snow, since on fine days there are much fewer “anti-slip” like needs.
