Hats off to all the mentally deranged idiots who in heavy snow and poor visibility deemed it not necessary to put their headlights on whilst driving to work, school or wherever.

 

Some went one better, driving without any lights whatsoever.

 

And I wonder if Mr-White-Van-Man managed to get up Stephen Hill?

Does anyone know what the situation's like around Doncaster today? My mum's due there for a late morning appointment (afternoon full of tests) but doesn't know whether it's safe to even set off. The hospital's number is constantly engaged.

 

I'd be really grateful if anyone over that way can tell me what the roads are like, especially up the A1(M) to Warmsworth (J36?) then the A630 across to Doncaster Royal Infirmary (the route she's likely to take from where she is).

 

Many thanks to anyone who can help!

The Motorways look in a lot worse condition that what the local roads do. Thorpe Hesley looks extremely bad! http://www.traffic.sy-transport.co.uk/motorway_jam_cams.htm

 

Those pics look fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The snow on the fields won't affect the cars :loopy: I'm serious! Look at the proper highways agency link. The whole motorway is moving nicely at 50Mph ish on average.
