And finally… abominable snowman

The motorist had apparently been driving in Dundee while peering out of a very small window in the snow over their side of the windscreen.

Inspector Greg Burns of the Tayside Roads Policing Unit said: “Our officers genuinely could not believe what they were seeing when they saw this car today.”

The driver “had practically zero visibility forwards, and it is nothing short of miraculous that no-one was hurt”, officers said.

Mr Burns added: “It’s not an exaggeration to say that this is just about the most extreme example of lack of preparation that we’ve ever seen.”
