It's the same every time the freeze takes hold. The garnishments are brought in from the weekend trip to market. Pop says Sally is getting a bum leg but I think she still has 2 good years on the wagon. The meat, in this case horse meat, came from Sally. She did have that bum leg after all.
What vehicles are applying the chemicals? Plows apply the salt mix. Regardless, we all know the freeze could've been handled better. Whether or not one cares is a different conversation.
Plows are for snow. You can't plow ice, unless you want to scrape the top inch off of your ashphalt/concrete. You put de-icers on ice and then go from there.
You put de-icers BEFORE or after snow OR ice, with a plow, then plow. Let's stop pretending plows aren't for snow AND ice. The refutters are the usual cast. I've seen sparks flying with that blade hitting the concrete. Get your scrape on.
No....in Minnesota which has snow and ice quite often, plows do not plow ice. If we were to get an inch of ice, there would be trucks sanding and salting and using a chemical mix before and after, but they would not physically plow.
Could these "trucks" you speak of, be called "plows?" Already asked once, but I understand why you'd slide-step.
I’ll type slower....plows do NOT put their plows down to move or plow ice. Trucks that have plows on the front will spread salt and sand, BUT THEY DO NOT SCRAPE THE ICE OFF THE ROADS. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
Exactly. Plows are present during ice -- which is what my initial statement stated. You know full-well broken ice is MOVED off the road with a blade (PLOW) scraping the ground. Texas didn't make the necessary effort to prevent the aftermath. Whether or not one cares is a different discussion.
After going over the numbers, it looks to me that houstunna can only comprehend a little over a word a minute.
On a serious note, plow truck drivers are horrible drivers. I have had quite a few lawsuits in my office dealing with drunk/high/d******d plow truck drivers taking out parked cars, pedestrians.... and my favorite; a Culvers drive thru order porch and ordering station.
No...in Minnesota, plows do not go out after an ice event to scrape ice off the road. They just don’t. Again, if we were to get ice tonight, plows would not come by and use their plows to scrape ice off the roadways. Move up here and observe for 26 winters if you don’t believe me.
However, PLOWS are present during ice events - which is what my initial post stated should've happened. I'm regularly in Colorado, so your 26-year hood isn't necessary for research.
Seriously, you need to realize the reality of the situation. - The kick-up from plowing creates a wall that is blinding. Everything you mentioned is directly where said kick-up lands -- to the right. - The plow is driving on dangerous ground to begin with. Yeah, **** might happen. The fact you're "favoriting" anything in this situation is beneath you, I think.
I have taken some of the cases to trial. Hitting a parked car in a parking lot or tearing down part of a restaurant is over the line. Mistakes happen, but in my experience it is usually excessive negligence. Not to mention poor background checks done on the drivers.
