Drivers warn of 'horrendous' conditions on Snake Pass
After making his way over Snake Pass, driver, Ian Harvey, warned: "Just come over, it was horrendous."
He added: "We were heading towards Sheffield just descending from the top of Snake. Cars were stuck heading up the hill in the opposite direction. It was treacherous, solid-packed ice with snow and had most definitely not been gritted."
