  York's entire road network collapsed into a series of gridlocked junctions and roundabouts following less than an inch of snow for the want of a dozen police officers controlling them and a couple of council workers staying on after five to monitor the traffic cameras and adapt traffic light phasing to the slippy road conditions. I can only imagine police officers think those bright yellow coats they insist on wearing are just to keep them warm on the short walk from the briefing room to the 5 Series rather than make them visible whilst directing traffic. What's strange is there's no shortage of them throughout the summer to carry out the same task while the races are on and it's warm.

  There's the problem. Their rear wheel drive 5 series wouldn't get out of the yard."
