2+ hrs to get a couple of miles across sheffield - sheet ice and gridlock buses and vans slipping and sliding!!!

Followed by a very pleasant 45 mins snowy drive with a dramatic red/pink sunset as a backdrop over the tops and out to the Peak

Almost 3 hrs to do just over 20 miles

 

45 minutes asusual no snow down here just the odd patch of ice. Although my bus did almost run into the back of another car sent a guy stood up on the upper deck flying into the window, dread to think what would have happened if I didn't shouted watch out just before so he got a grip on something to reduce the velocity he hit the window at.

 

2 hours(normally 10mins) and was rear ended and pushed into another car

 

what is usually a 15-20 minute journey, took an hour

I never got out of first gear, ice everywhere as the rain had frozen and even the main roads had a layer of about an inch of frozen slush

 

2hrs extra that was just to get out of cheltenham. It was fine after that the motorway was travelling at rain speed.

Spoke to a red scoob driver who asked if i'd had a play yet


We had snow AND lightning!!

Then there was a load of vans etc stuck trying to get up a hill. I waited for 10mins in the queue, then realised i had AWD and went past them all on the grippier snow covered grass

And i've just been out to some nice carparks!

2.5 hours to do 11 miles (an hour to do 0.5 )

 

1hour 15minutes to do 30miles, normally takes 45minutes.. one road closure due to an accident.. I love knowing the country lanes, just took the scoob down the least used, which meant they were thin and a bit hilly in places, to say the least..

Worst thing was not being able to see as the lights illuminate the flakes etc..

It too me 0.00 seconds, which is precisely the same amount of time as it normally does. I actually looked out, saw the snow falling (quite heavily) and was quite pissed off because I was planning on going for a blast. Half an hour later when it had settled, it looked a lot more tempting, but I resisted.
Over 18000 miles in a WRX03 and 99% of them dry!!

 

3hrs. Usually 35mins.

What I hate is that you can be stuck in a queue and not know why. You get fed up and get out to see whats happening to find a transit or BMW that can't get up a hill. They sit in th car waiting for help and don't put their hazard lights on. Car behind has got some sort of dork who feels happy to sit behind and wait too! I realise theres space to get around and off I drive and all the sheep follow. Grrrrr!

Oh and I wasn't in my scoob but a Hyundai Coupe!!!! It coped really well - quite impressed

I now hate BMWs and rear whell drive vans.

an hour stuck on a train home, then just when i think we are getting somewhere, someone decides to take their life using the train infront of us. This morning, 2hours to get in, normally a 25-30min train journey. !! Cant wait to leave this afternoon.

 

If idiots didn't insist on blocking up the roundabouts, then we would all get home quicker.

The cars just queue up around it, and nobody gets anywhere.

And why do 307 drivers insist on being soooooo close to my rear bumper that I can't even see their headlights

 

2hrs to go 1/4 mile in South Brum- stayed at the same island and didint move for 45mins- gave up parked the car and walked 4.5 miles home, warehouse guy at our place lives in Quinton he got home at 11.30pm started off at 5.30pm..........

worst conditions I have ever seen in Brum total carnage!

 

75 mins to get across Swindon (normaly 15 mins)
