Traffic at a standstill in Cornwall and Devon

(1/4) > >>

Manicminer:
Just seen the news. It looks like people can't drive in snow these days.
Is it lack of experience or is snow of the wrong type?

Bishops Finger:
Lack of experience...but I wouldn't like to be stuck on the A30 nr Jamaica Inn

TULL:
people just havnt got a clue what gear they should be in, they just keep putting on more gas

hobbit:
Too much media hype, not enough confidence or common sense

denviks:
apparently i have heard that when you learn to drive now adays they dont teech them to use the gears to slow down. they are taught to use the brakes  :shock: ...how true this is i dont know.,.....would cause some problems i would say in the weather.
i spent quite a few years in germany so this kind of weather was the norm in the winter and you learn to drive in it every day. the only problem came when i came back to the uk.....most people here just dont know what to do with ice and snow...... :(
