On my way into work this morning I'd noticed patches of the roads had frozen over as it was apparently in the minus' last night.
I didn't have any problems on any of the roads on the way, until I met a round about turning right.. Must of only been doing 15-20mph and the car completely slid, 360 degrees. Narrowly missing an artic coming behind me!!!
I'm so fortunate it's half term for the kid's at the moment, because on a school day the road is rammed and I would have easily had some damage done.
I'm on the look out or a winter car if anyone has one for sale? Not bothered, 1.2 - 1.5 preferable, few months tax and MOT will do for a £200-300.
Can't risk having to claim on my insurance as I'm paying the earth already. Winter car/good bad idea? :bounce:
