Parking lot, restaurants, whatever.. Reality says,.. "it's highly doubtful the average CDL'R isn't CLEARLY better than any non CDL." It's just the nature of the situation. Most people are scared to even try. Some people fear a 5-speed stick.
You have made multiple posts saying that plows scrape/plow the ice off the roads. Minnesota has a number of trucks that don’t even have a plow blade that are present during icy events spreading salt and snow.
Vehicle size is the biggest factor with CDL vs Non.... not all plows are CDL. Regardless, "plowing thangs" isn't exactly the safest activity to participate in. Such activity should be judged with a curve vs normal driving.
If Minnesota does, It's wasting your tax dollars -- perhaps for 26 consecutive years. Also consider, blades are removable --- those trucks/plows may've only been in the "chemical phase" of the situation.
lol at the guy from Houston telling the guy from Minnesota about how to handle snow and ice events. Actually, up there, they're not events because that assumes something that that doesn't happen on a daily freakin basis for large portions of the year.
All I can say is, it was a pain in the ass to get the ice off my driveway with a shovel. I said f that and went back inside where it was warm.
Not the ones the cows can get to, they'll just chew the insulation off. But the main ones...I'll unwrap them in March.
I'm a full time plow driver in arizona and you can scrape anything you put your mind into, you just have to believe
Missed work Tuesday and Wednesday due to ice and snow, here it is Saturday and it's 72* and perfect. Houston is crazy.
So, if my driveway is 100 square feet (10x10) that means it is 14400 square inches. My hammer head is about an inch in diameter. Assuming the ice is 1/2 inch thick, how many times do I have to strike the ice with the hammer, before I can start scraping it off with some sort of scraping tool?
