Correct answer
No, tracks may also be icy and conditions must be assessed.
No. Following tracks may be useful advice in some conditions, but does not guarantee grip: snow and ice greatly reduce adhesion and tracks may also be icy. Assess conditions, reduce speed, increase separation and operate smoothly; observe restrictions and required equipment. Do not justify riding a moped on a heavily snow-covered road by claiming all compacted snow improves grip. If conditions are unsafe, do not continue.
