Motorists in the UK have been warned to drive carefully by a weather association as harsh conditions are expected to be experienced this weekend.

According to Nikki Berry, forecaster at Meteogroup UK, a blanket of snow is expected to hit Britain over the weekend, potentially causing problems for motorists.

It may be that those who are involved in accidents find that their car or bike insurance policies become compromised or that they have to pay out for repairs.

Similarly, they may also find that the cost of their bills increase if cover firms judge their behaviour to be indicative of a risky road user.

The Press Association reports that the weather has already influenced accidents on the M6 between junctions 36, 38 and 44.

It adds that one man was killed after his HGV was blown into a central reservation.

Nikki Berry, forecaster for Meteogroup UK, comments that "the message is everyone should be prepared".

Meanwhile, the Evening Courier has warned drivers in Halifax that strong winds are expected this weekend.

According to the news source, winds of up to 80 mph are to hit the West Yorkshire region.
