They couldn't move an inch last night. Frozen and blocked by snow and ice on the A36 motorway near Montbéliard in Doubs, several hundred motorists had to be patient due to significant slowdowns.

The cars are completely stationary, although their headlights and engines are on. Throughout the night, hundreds of motorists were trapped between trucks immobilized by snow and ice. Some tried to break through, but to no avail.

The same freezing night was experienced by motorists in Orne, . On the A28, a truck crossed the lanes, blocking traffic. An incomprehensible mess for a British tourist. “It’s the first time this has happened to me. I was in Scotland in the snow with 50 cm of powder and we moved without any problem”he explains. By dawn, the lines of cars stretched for miles. On the A36, it was only in the morning that traffic gradually resumed.
