do you change your driving style? Just been out, roads are a mixture of ice, slush and general flooding, plus was snowing so heavily couldnt see a thing, and yet still had chavs in their modified saxos etc over taking me doing atleast 80! so who takes care with the road conditions, and who thinks its fun to stick their foot down for the 'danger'?

I do, but only when nessecary.

Weather sounds awfull where you are, down here is a different story, they salt ALL the roads, and there is little ice.

Some people take the piss and think its cold out there so i shall drive 5mph on a dry non frozen perfectly safe road

But if conditions were like u described, i basically will avoid driving at all costs

standard practice round here is they have about a week of bad weather warnings, then then the snow comes, no oen is prepared for it and complains about the lack of warning then the gritters come our mid-february sometime when the snow has gone
