Ice and Snow causing Accidents and Chaos in the UK
A few days of cold weather accompanied by some short but intense snowfall have wreaked havoc in the United Kingdom.
Roads are littered with abandoned vehicles in many of the worst hit parts of the country. Many were attempting to retrieve their vehicles as temperatures began to increase a little today. A number of people are reported to have been trapped in their cars overnight in sub zero temperatures.
Public transport systems have also been disrupted. High speed Eurostar trains that run between London and Paris have been breaking down due to snow getting into the power systems. Around 2000 Eurostar passengers were trapped for up to 16 hours in the Channel tunnel. Some passengers have experienced panic attacks and there have been some cases of extreme claustrophobia prompting some to leave their trains and attempt to walk to a station.
Eurostar have now begun to resume operation of their high speed trains after three days with no service. They now have huge passenger backlogs to deal with in both France and the UK.
The National Health service has told people to stay at home unless their journey is essential. This advice came after hospital accident and emergency departments reported record numbers of people requiring attention for injuries sustained as a result of falls on icy pavements.
Since Chrstmas is only a few days away many are forced to venture into their nearby towns to carry out their essential shopping. This is forcing people to leave their homes and venture forth onto treacherous pavements.
Discussions have already begun regarding how well the UK has coped with this latest round of bad weather. While main roads were quickly treated with grit and salt many smaller side roads remained untreated and most pavements and footpath were completely untreated.
In February 2009 the UK was plunged into icy Arctic conditions when winter weather caused traffic chaos, school closures and disruption on a massive scale. This latest bad weather is prompting many to ask if the UK is capable of dealing with intense winter weather.
