They'll be fine if they are careful. I believe BC plows the roads when needed. He might want to carry and be prepared to use tire chains, and if he is planning on winter driving in the mountains, tell him to not attempt it without proper snow tires. Some of the drop offs go down a very long way.

While BC does endeavor to plow Highway 5 as soon as possible, it does get shut on a regular basis. My dad just missed a shutdown on highway 5 just after christmas, and that's by no means the only one. Given the length, remoteness and altitude of much of Highway 5, it's difficult to keep open in the winter.
