Winters are not fun when you are a trucker

I don’t mind throwing on some chains if it’s just for one hill and I can take them off and keep going when I get over the top. But I’m never going to be chomping about with them on all day at 15 mph. The thing that gets me parking-up in bad weather is the windscreen wipers. With certain types of snow, they soon turn into swishing blocks of ice with about an inch of scree getting cleaned off. I soon get fed-up with stopping and cleaning them.
