[Adam]

Its snowing here in stoke as well, i have never drove in snow before but need to drive home in about an hour. Any tips.
Well if i make it, cars been cutting out all the time and misfiring, so wouldn't make it if it wasn't snowing. I hate snow.

I love the snow. Although it has to be said that I don't HAVE to drive in it, so when I do its for fun :twisted:

The best tip for drving in snow is be smooth (accelerating and breaking) and take everything slow. So slow down for junctions and stuff well in advance. Its supprising how much grip you don't have on snow!

Keep the revs down! Try and stay out of first gear; that said if you're going downhill drop down a gear and let the engine slow the car down. Don't stomp on the brakes, give yourself plenty of room to stop gently. If you're worried about it then try to stick to roads that have been cleared/gritted.

As Dar said, keep it smooth.

[Adam]

It stopped snowing here ages ago, and started melting, i had to drive home in slushy crap, which is about as slippy as snow.
Well, i made it, felt the back end starting to slide out on some corners :wink:
And luckily my car didn't break down :D
But now the slush is turning to ice, and thats when you don't wanna be on the roads. :?
