Scotland's fleet of hilariously-named gritters have hit the roads - with names like Gritney Spears, For Your Ice Only and Salt Disney.
Transport Scotland's gritters have risen to prominence in recent years due to their fun names and a website called Gritty Tracker that allows you to follow their movements.
The UK has a tradition of giving modes of transport bizarre names, after a research ship was named Boaty McBoatface following a public vote in 2016.
And the nation's fleet of gritters, which are keeping drivers safe this week, is no exception.
