As January sets in, many of us have woken up to snow or ice covering our cars. You may be able to avoid scraping it off if you cover the windscreen.

It's that time of year when many of us wake up to cars that have frozen due to the cold weather; however, the AA says parking in a simple area could help.

The AA (Automobile Association) has urged drivers to put one item on their car windscreens to prevent frost in December. It's an easy method to battle ice.

As the weather is getting colder, our windscreens are starting to freeze overnight; however, there's a simple household item you can use to prevent the problem.
