Once again commuters faced travel chaos on Monday morning as large parts of the UK were hit by ice, fog and snow. The coldest night and day of the year so far saw heavy snowfall in Scotland and southeast and eastern England, with delays hitting road, rail and air travel.
Three hundred flights were cancelled on Sunday and Monday, some lines on the London Underground were suspended, schools closed, and drivers on the M25 were stranded for several hours as the UK's busiest motorway being closed in both directions.
For Daniel Duffield, a 22-year-old off-duty paramedic that was stuck on the M25 for more than two-and-a-half hours on Monday morning while attempting to travel home to Birmingham from London, he didn't think the weather would have warranted the disruption that unfolded.
