POLICE have issued a warning over icy roads after several car crashes across the county.

With freezing temperatures earlier this morning conditions on the Sussex roads are treacherous with two cars already having come off the road and rolled.

At 6.30am a Vauxhall Astra car hit a patch of ice near the Yew Tree Inn, Arlington, and overturned. The driver was unhurt.
 
At around the same time three vehicles collided in North Street, Alfriston, at its junction with Litlington Road, just south of the A27 Drusillas Roundabout.
 
One of the motorists involved, a woman from Seaford suffered whiplash injuries, and was treated by paramedics at the scene.
 
The road was blocked and following a second incident 100 metres away from the first, which involved a  car overturning, the road was closed in both directions.
 
Also closed following a series of collisions due to ice was the road between Ditchling and Brighton, over Ditchling Beacon.
 
Sheet ice was reported on the A26 between Newhaven and Beddingham, and two vehicles left the road in separate incidents just south of the Beddingham roundabout. No injuries were reported.  
 
On the A22 at Uckfield, near the Blackdown roundabout, a car was reported to have left the road southbound. No one was hurt.

Sussex Police are urging people to take care on the roads.
