It's one thing to have ice but expect it to melt later in the morning, but it just never defrosted really. Little dips in the lanes / small puddles by shaded hedgerows, I think a lot of it stayed frozen all day. Dunno what the grit level is anyway as sometimes there is build up from when the gritters are out over the course of the winter, but this is the first ice of the season. Imo wise to swerve it.
