first bad bit of frost this morn and yes it was bloody cold scraping the windows ready for the school run but..... the amount of people on the roads this morning with just windscreen cleared or a patch cleared on drivers side to see out of gets my back up it takes all of 5 mins to clear them ! i clear ALL  mine even after a night shift when the roads are quiet (6am)  cant believe people wing it by scraping peepholes in the windscreen

i don't understand it either, the 5 mins it takes to scrap all windows with heaters on full, its nice and toasty by the time i get in too

It's very stupid, dangerous & if plod sees them i hope they get a ticket.
I had a very slight & i mean slight mist on the inside of my windscreen on the way to work the other week, which didn't affect my vision until i turned a junction & the sun was shining directly onto my screen. I had to pull up & wait a few extra seconds for the screen to clear, but how many do i see with misted up windows or ice on their windows? Quite a few

[bestie26]

i even had a neigbour (four doors away) who drove his car outside my house then decided to clear his windows all the while his missus reving the car to keep it ticking over ! serves them right as far as iam concerned if they get a ticket , would the set off in a morning with a bed sheet over there windscreen ? id hope not yet quite happy to have windscreen covered in ice ? makes no sense

lazy barstewards. They'd bloody complain though if someone crashed into them because of it.

[bestie26]

they would, but like with drink drivers unfortunatly its the innocent people who get hurt the people in the wrong tend to walk away unscathed should be a on the spot fine if anyone is caught with iced up windows, charge of dangerous driving or driving without due care and any commen sense

I walked passed a woman this morning as her wipers were scraping their way across the frosted screen. Apart from the fact she was killing her wiper blades, it would've been far faster for her to get her lazy backside out of the car & scrape her window.  :-?

It beats me how many women I see, with their most treasured posessions in the car, on the school run, with ice still all over their windscreens.

The thin blue line is getting thinner as we speak so these morans know they wont be caught and given a ticket.

The other one that gets my goat is snow covered cars being driven before the snow has been cleared off them

You're not kidding!

And people driving with their mirrors turned in, and hyper active baseball cap wearing idiots driving whilst fiddling with radio/turning heatin on/texting/doing anything other than look whilst driving

[Vamps]

We used to start the cars, leave the heater on and come back in the house... till last winter when my sister in laws car was stolen from the drive and the insurance have not paid up, stolen with keys in......

[bestie26]

ah yes there will be plenty of them once the snow comes , yes its good you cleared your windows of snow but that pile you have on your bonnet will blind you and your windscreen again as soon as you get up to a decent speed , not to mention the pile you have on the roof blinding everyone behind you ! seems common sense is out of the window everyone is in a rush and defo gets worse nearer xmas

steady on. you will be expecting them not to park on the school building entrance steps next.

as for the 20mph limit outside schools from another thread...

with cars parked everywhere the roads like an assault course..impossible if not dangerous at 9am/3.30pm
