Insurers are bracing themselves for a spate of claims associated with the snow expected next week, says the AA.
The UK's biggest home and car insurance broker warned that many new drivers would lack experience of driving in seriously icy conditions.
AA Insurance director Neale Phillips said: "Whenever there is a cold snap, the number of claims always goes up.
"But the last time England and Wales suffered widespread snow and ice was in the winter of 1995-1996. Since then, 4.5 million new drivers have taken to the road and most will never have driven in such conditions.
"Fortunately, most people respond by driving more cautiously so although there may be many bumps, most will be minor."
