Sub zero temperatures and snowfall has left many roads like ice rinks.
But one teenager from south Belfast has been showing off her novel solution to getting around - with a pair of skates.
Lucy Donaldson, 15, was sliding all over the place as she played with friends so decided to go and get her ice skates.
And the Belfast Giants fan managed to get the whole length of Minnowburn Drive with her blades, and wearing a onesie, without hitting tarmac, reports Belfast Live.
She said: “I was in the street with my shoes on and keep falling so decided to see of our ice skates would work. My dad told me I’d break my neck but I tried it anyway and it worked great.”
