I think once I get out of Dundee area and back onto the M8 things should be better as the roads are a lot flatter. Plus I hope the gritters are out in force tonight/tomorrow morning.

Take it easy and you'll be reet.
I recall one early morning driving my dad to Edinburgh airport from Dundee. It was below freezing and I could feel the car moving about a bit at times but put it down to the wind.
Got up to the highest bit of the road and found about 10 cars in the barriers all crashed separately and on different stretches of the road.
I reckon the winter tyres saved my bacon that day. It certainly wasn't my driving skills!

Can you find out if your car is fitted with winter tyres?

They are forecasting freezing rain in central and southern Scotland. If that does come to pass be really really careful. It's absolutely treacherous.
