DRIVERS face fresh challenges today as temperatures continue to dip below freezing in North Lincolnshire.

It has been another sub-zero start for the region, with freezing fog and icy conditions on the roads.

    Freezing fog is affecting North Lincolnshire

The frosty start makes for picturesque surroundings, but brings with it treacherous conditions for those driving.

But it seems drivers are paying heed to safety warnings, as Humberside Police received no reports of any accidents last night or this morning.

The Met Office warned of freezing temperatures last night, which have continued through to this morning as low as -3 degrees Celsius.

The dense fog has also made visibility poor, meaning that extra care should be taken behind the wheel.

Although the fog is expected to thin throughout the day, temperatures are expected to dip to -1 degrees Celsius by 6pm, with some fog still affecting parts of North Lincolnshire.

Drivers are being urged to check their vehicles before travelling and take extra care on the roads when driving.

    “Drivers paying heed to safety warnings - what a laugh!
    How many are driving on these frosty/foggy mornings with either no lights on at all or missing lights? Is that one eyed monster bearing down on you a motorbike,no its a car with ony one headlight.
    On the M180 this morning in foggy conditions but we still have the idiots(?) driving at high speed in lane 3 as if its mid June.”
