Quote: Neil HFC "Trouble is driving sensibly means slow due to the hugely increased stopping distances, and leaving much larger gaps when pulling out onto roundabouts etc, all of which slows everything down and has a knock on effect throughout the road system. Couple that with people that either don't know how to drive on snow through lack of confidence, or think they can drive far better than that actually can and you get all sorts of fun issues.

On my extended trip home from the kids school earlier, I saw a double deck bus get a little bit sideways.

I guess after spending a few years in a country where lots of snow is the norm it amazes how this country seemingly grinds to a halt when we get the white stuff coming down.
To be fair it came down heavy this afternoon in Hull and the lack of experience of the majority of drivers when it comes to driving in the snow in the UK all plays a part.

The worst culprits for me today where the idiots waiting to get onto the roundabouts, going for gaps that are fine when its clear but when it is like this they are just asking for trouble.

Cannot blame the stadium people for the Hull/Chelski game being called off, it was probably a decision they had no control over. The stadium and pitch were fine but like has been said the access areas will have been deemed 'Unsafe' by the over zealous H&S people.
Getting to Hull from London will not have been a problem, nor would getting to the stadium from the motorway.
