Remember to:

  • Be patient, and remember snowplows are working to improve road conditions for your trip.
  • Stay back at least five car lengths, and preferably 10, behind the plow, far from the snow cloud.
  • Stay alert for snowplows that turn or exit frequently and often with little warning. They also may travel over centerlines or partially in traffic to further improve road conditions.
  • Slow down to a safe speed for current conditions. Snowplows typically move at slower speeds.


Don't forget, we're on the road and in the storm together. Be patient with the snowplows and drive according to road conditions.
