yep a hoax. However I see, and expect, the rozzers to do people for inadiaquate visability due to ice or snow. Persoanlly I do clear the roof, and bonnet, for reason of snow chunks. Especially around my way where we haven't had that much snow and the roads are now clear. Other than crap falling off cars. And it pisses me off that people don't clear their headlights. How the f**k are we supposed to see your indicators. Oh, sorry. I forget that in the UK in the C21st indicating is optional!!
