Tough driving conditions last night at Sutton Bank, as seen on this North Yorkshire County Council webcam
POLICE have warned of 'incredibly bad driving conditions' in York and North Yorkshire after sleet and snow showers left roads dangerously icy.
This webcam image captured on a North Yorkshire County Council camera shows Sutton Bank near Thirsk at just before 6pm last night.
An official in the North Yorkshire Police Control Room tweeted last night: "It’s incredibly bad driving conditions out in #York and surrounding areas. I hope you’re all tucked up in bed, but if not, please take care. Make sure windscreens are clear and take extra blankets and hot drinks for long journeys.
The Met Office has a yellow warning for ice in York up until 11am today, with a risk of some injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces.
