UK drivers warned to drive cautiously as icy roads increase risk of skidding.

Drivers in the UK face risks due to icy roads and windscreens. Auto Trader UK recommends increasing stopping distances by up to ten times and avoiding brakes, as regular tires have less grip on ice. If a skid occurs, drivers should steer in the direction of the skid without taking hands off the wheel and avoid overcorrecting to prevent spinning out. Adjusting speed to match icy conditions is crucial for safety.
