Several roads in Telford were partially blocked or queuing as drivers struggled with the snow on Wednesday morning.
Reports of a collision at Redhill came in at around 7.20am, which caused queuing traffic at the Limekiln Bank Roundabout - affecting traffic on the A5 Telford Way and A4640 Castle Farm Way.
Crashes were also reported on Dawley Road in Lawley and Holyhead Road in Wellington - near to the junction of Haygate Road - at around 8am.
Fire, police and ambulance services had also attended a crash on Lincoln Hill in Ironbridge, which saw one car come to a rest on its roof at around 6.30am.
The AA also reported that the A518 from Newport to Weston-under-Lizard was "just passable" due to snow.
If you must leave the house this morning, advice from the AA states: "Accelerate gently when moving off in snow, avoiding harsh speeds that could cause wheelspin. Stay in a higher gear and avoid braking as much as you can.
"Start off in second gear using low revs, and ease your foot off the clutch gently. Instead of using the brake pedal, cycle down the gears to use engine braking (you can tap the brake pedal lightly to make drivers behind aware that you’re slowing down).
"Leave plenty of room between your vehicle and the one in front. If you do start skidding, stay calm, steer into the skid and avoid sudden movements like hitting the brakes.
"If you're driving an electric or hybrid car, adjust the regenerative braking to a lower setting."
