Perspectives may vary, but to me 4-5 inches of snow sounds still like relatively light coverage - though certainly enough to slow down movement.

Then again, that might have to do something with the fact that there is currently around 20 inches worth of snow outside my house - certainly enough to make movement very difficult on areas that have not been cleared of snow. And on areas that have been cleared of snow, there are likely to be walls of snow on the sides of the road, where the snow has been ploughed - making it more difficult to move from the ploughed road to the areas of fresh snow.
