And in any case, if the road markings are obscured by snow, can a ticket be issued as surely a driver would be able to say they didn't know where restrictions applied?

Well it hasn't stopped them on Sundays before.

Yup, but I don't suppose that'll prevent all those 'superior drivers' out there from tailgating anyone with the temerity to drive to the conditions will it...

Caught sight of a week long weather forcast on 'countryfile' prog (last 10min), forcaster was hinting of a warm blast coming to the south west next weekend?
Could do with some cheery weather forcast, even if it's out.
(Anyone catch the 5.30pm prog on BBC2 Saturday- The Big Freeze 1963, made this weather look like a slight snowy week)
