Half of this problem is people not having the ability to drive in the snow. Useless cunts!

agreed, 10mph on the approach to a snow covered hill isnt going to get you up it, then constantly braking on the way down isnt going to help much either

I was in work, it was fine this morning, got worse through the day as melting ice started refreezing, could feel the van deciding to slide a bit a couple of times but nothing to worry about if you're driving right.
Took a spade with us today just in case and ended up using it twice but it was only to get out of a parking space on a slight incline, probably could've done without but when the back end slid towards the car next to me I thought it best not to take any chances.
Sick of seeing numpties in 4x4s thinking because of the grip they have when pulling off/accelerating they must have the same grip when braking. This morning I saw one driving down a road where I'd felt the van sliding about a bit a few minutes before when I was doing 5-10mph then some knob went passed doing 30 in his 4x4, if the lights ahead would've changed he wouldn't have had a chance of stopping
