Phone charger warning issued to drivers as snow hits the UK

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Drivers across the country have been sent a warning over phone chargers as road conditions take a turn for the worse. Snow fell across many parts of the country last night.

Three Met Office yellow weather alerts for snow and ice have been issued, covering northern England, the Midlands, parts of Northern Ireland, and north east Wales.

Motorists have also been warned by National Highways of severe snow on some parts of the motorway following an amber alert. In wake of this, motoring experts at Driving Hire have provided some of their essential tips for those driving in the snow - and one of them is on phone chargers.

They also stress the value of packing other items. When stuck, vehicles frequently exhaust their batteries while using hazard lights and charging phones, leaving them unable to call for assistance when needed.
