Correct answer

Yes: they can reduce grip, particularly when wet or accumulated, and hide markings, potholes or edges. Adapt speed, leave more margin and avoid abrupt actions; do not assume the pavement beneath is always visible. They do not themselves improve grip and are not irrelevant to driving.
