Sometimes but not always true. Ice is a challenge, but at least there's a physical space to put your car - less so if there is piled up snow everywhere. We had about as much snow as Chicago recently, but it all melted over the weekend before the cold snap (which itself was rather pathetic compared to Chicago)... parking is relatively easy compared to when there's snow everywhere.

I do agree that if you only get a partial melt it can be quite a bit worse since you've still got the piles, but not everything is covered in sheets of ice. Ah, winter.
