Winter is here! Well for today anyway.

I went to the car this morning .... and the windscreen, side windows and rear screen were covered in ice!  So here is the routine:

1. Turn engine on
2. Set heater controls to demist, not forgetting the heated rear window.
3.Get ice scraper and clear all side windows, mirrors and head and tail lights, then clear the windscreen.
4. Turn on wipers to make sure all loose ice and water is removed.
5. Check all windows, do all round observations, signal if neccessary and drive off.

See pictures below, and if you can see the time ... the whole process to but a few minutes.

Window all iced up!

This is called "The Port Hole" No visibility!
All nice and clear ... and in under 5 minutes!

This is all in the Highway Code, see rule 229; you MUST be able to see, so clear all snow and ice from all your windows.
Drive safe.
