When driving in icy or snowy weather • drive with care, even if the roads have been treated • keep well back from the road user in front as stopping distances can be ten times greater than on dry roads • take care when overtaking vehicles spreading salt or other de-icer, particularly if you are riding a motorcycle or cycle • watch out for snow ploughs which may throw out snow on either side. Do not overtake them unless the lane you intend to use has been cleared • be prepared for the road conditions to change over relatively short distances • listen to travel bulletins and take note of variable message signs that may provide information about weather, road and traffic conditions ahead.
