Snow removal affects everyone in our community. Here are a few reasons why it’s important to move your vehicle off the street when it snows. Remember: During big snowstorms, officers are often busy responding to accidents and emergencies. Please make the choice that helps keep our roads safe and clear—move your car off the street when it snows.
1. It’s the law.
2. Cars parked on the road can block snowplows from getting through.
3. Parked cars make it harder for snowplows to clear the road because they have to work around them.
4. Working around parked cars slows down the snowplows and makes clearing the roads take longer.
5. If cars are moved after the road has already been plowed, they can leave large piles of snow in the street. Plow drivers often don’t have the time or ability to return for a second pass, so these piles may remain and cause safety issues.
6. Snow left in the road can block access for other vehicles, including police, fire trucks, ambulances, and garbage trucks.
