Clearing snow from paths and roads
Clearing snow from paths and roads
all week in work the debate as raged, and i see it everywhere on the forums,
Now i see a commenter on a news story about the weather on The Suns website going all off at the health and safety nazi's and how its illegal, you will be sued
its all utter rubbish as this link proves........http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Nl1/Newsroom/DG_191868
so long as you dont make it worse you can do as you please,
infact the only thing it tells you not to do is use water to clear snow/ice as it can cause black ice, thus increasing the problem
everything else from shovelling to salting is fair game
rant over

What exactly is the argument? That you're not supposed to clear paths?

everytime someone either mentions they cleared a path, or ask "why dont you do it yourself if the council havent"
the debate roars about being sued, and its apparently illegal and all this and that
it wound me up so before interjecting i read up on it,
wiped the smug smiles off many a face in my office, muhahahaha

That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, why would it be illegal to clear snow?

It was another one of these made-up health & safety stories - i.e. if you try and clear snow but someone slips and injures themselves because you didn't do it properly, they can sue you. 100% untrue unless you do something stupid (e.g. use boiling water to clear snow and it then just re-freezes as black ice).
