idiot plow drivers....

I had a spot cleaned out that I maintained and used EVERY DAY!
during the past month of storms I was able to give our plow driver enough room to clear the street and still clean a little pull-off area that I fine tuned for my truck. Life was good!

Then a city plow comes through this past weekend, and decided to try and expand the frozen embankment oneither side, and effectively proceeded to plow 50-80 lb. snow boulders into my spot (I know it's not really MY spot) but also blocked our driveway causing my brother to have to drive OVER a snow mound to get to work in the morning.
In just one pass this 'tard pretty much undid all the work we had done over the past month.

If I see that particular plow a-hole again, I'm going to throw a yellow sno-globe into his cab. (Of course I won't do it where he will know which vehicle is mine, because the last thing I need is a vindictice Napoleanic POC on my case.

So, when's the next storm due?

You don't own the street or the frontage in front of your house. Frontage varies from towns & cities.

Hopefully it is now safe for emergency vehicles like fire trucks as well as school buses.Piss off a plow driver and you will become an expert at shoveling,that is a guarantee.

I got to laugh at everyone who pisses & moans about shoveling their driveway and the big bad plows come down the streets and leave the snow at the end of the driveway.
What good does shoveling your driveway do if the streets didn't get plowed ??? where the hell you going go then ???

Kind of like the Moonbat liberals with the Obama signs in their front lawn and stickers all over the rear of their cars that live near me !

I kind of feel bad for the poor bastards because of all the snow I've left for them,, NOT !!!

I would call the mayor's office to complain. What if there was a mother to be had to make an emergency trip.

The only thing that gets me about plow guys are the private ones not plowing for the town. Seems like there isn't a single person with a plow on their truck that has any regard for other people on the road or the rules of the road. I'm sure some people care, I just haven't witnessed it.

Backing up into a busy intersection? No problem
Driving the wrong way down the road? Sure
Plow in the neighbor's car to clear your customers driveway? Of course
Push a mound of snow into the street causing a 6" speed bump of ice on a 30MPH road? You betcha.

It's like they think the cute yellow light on top of their truck is a license to do whatever they want.
