Yeah but, Snow Butt!

Getting fed up with our British winter weather now. More snow and yesterday it took me 3 hours to travel 22 miles home from work. There were abandoned cars, cars and a mini bus in a ditch and generally vehicles struggling to get up or down any sort of hill. It didn't look like roads had been salted/gritted despite what the local highways agency say on today's news. How come we still come to a standstill every time a bit of snow falls? It's pathetic!
