Drivers could face a £2,500 fine if they're caught with snow on parts of their vehicles.
Motorists are being warned to fully clear their windscreens and take snow off the roof of their cars as the weather gets colder, or they could face a huge fine. With wintery showers and ice forecast for the North West on Thursday, March 9 and Friday, March 10, people might not be aware that not removing snow or ice from their windscreens completely is a hazard on the road, Birmingham Live reports.
It is a common mistake that people leave their homes without fully clearing the ice and snow from the windscreen and windows. Many drivers find themselves in a rush in the mornings before the commute to work, or when they need to get somewhere in a hurry and don't have the time for the chore.
