It’s not enough to have to deal with the mostly damp b roads in winter, you also need to look out for moss! Sneaky little slimy slippery moss.
There are around 12,000 species of moss and they typically grow in damp and shady locations. During winter, b roads covered by a dense canopy are an ideal location and moss grows within the cracks of bitumen. As they grow and fill the cracks they spill on to the road and come in contact with your tyres.
