A saw a pretty big freezer lorry today try and reverse around a corner that was on a slight incline. I had shortly beforehand walked across this area and it was hard sheet ice. He got a bit of the way and then started to slide down the slope. Very luckily for him, he was able to pull out of it, but it could have been pretty bad.

Hope they've got a patent. Seriously good product!

I'm walking everywhere. Car is under 10" of snow and likely to stay there! Don't need it until 20th!

Live on a street with a slope, saw a car gracefully slide down it, across the junction and into the transit on the other side.

yeah i did think the engineering that need to go into those tracks to combat the torsion and loading must be pretty extreme - looks a serious laugh

Havent touched my car all week either - under a nice blanket of snow. I'm sure its doing it no good at all, at least at the moment its cold all the time. Probably start it to find wipers are broken cause of all the snow on top of them.

cant wait for the sun to come back out and give it an air-ing!

Any time a car is sliding, the wheels are not turning.Good luck.

I'm having trouble staying on my feet in this weather. It's like dancing on ice every time I step out of the front door!
