I've heard Stone is quite bad today, is that the case?
Also as an instructor I believe that students should learn in these condtions so they can drive safely in them. Usually I start in a quiet car park well away from other cars. I teach skid contol, use of gears and how to correct skids when they take place, THEN we go on the road. Obviously if it was really bad, it would be a no no, but I wish I'd had the chance when I first learnt, it would have made me more aware of ice and snow! What do you think?
