Video: Police offer tips on winter driving

Tips on how to drive in snowy and icy conditions have been offered by Thames Valley Police.

The force has released two videos on YouTube, giving advice on topics including safety checks for your car and what to do if you find yourself in a skid.

Inspector Paul Winks, from Bicester Roads Policing base, said: "Obviously in adverse weather conditions, we would advise people not to drive unless absolutely necessary, but acknowledge that people will need to travel and want them to be as prepared as possible before they set off."

Severe weather warnings remain in place for the area with icy conditions expected to continue over the weekend.

Visit our Weather page for the latest forecast.
