I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

fexcellent - it seems mondeo man is the same across the UK - we have a twerp who lives down our road who drives one - has no effin' idea how to tackle the combination of slight incline and snow/ice that has been the road outside my house for getting close to 4 weeks now - we have had to push him ... I reckon 4 times over this period ... that's 3 more than anyone else on the road Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Its such a pity you couldn't have stopped and gave the chap a quick lesson in Newtons Law. Something along the lines of " If you didn't have those large,heavy non-recycleable toxic batteries in your roller skate you may have been able to stop in time" and with the short but informative lecture complete give him a quick Benny Hill style pat on the head and leave in a safe and controlled wheelspin whilst honking on your General Lee style horn. I reckon that may just complete his day Club Exped trailer

Would have loved to, but it's a tricky junction at the best of times (T-Junction from normal, straight road to a narrow, twisty, hilly, ice-bound with passing places) and I had no plans to end up under the wheels of a speeding Transit for the sake of a little schadenfreude, no matter how delicious it may have been.
If I get the chance I may park up nearby tonight and have a quick rummage in the snow for any trophies.

Good post Al brought a smile to an otherwise crap day
All I can add is a Fiesta with all 4 wheels locked up slidding to a stop at a junction narrowly missing a car this morning.
