I used to lived in st paul for many years.. Dont get me twisted I loved that city. But the city dont plowed for shit.
People that complain about plows are the worst. Imagine a snowstorm without them. Unless you have a high clearance 4x4 with chains you ain’t getting anywhere especially in higher elevation areas
While some like the snow. In a urban area. Snow kills 100% respect too those plows Because those streets are cleaned. Emergency service become 100% available
Next time you want to get angry with the plow truck drivers, think of what would happen if they all suddenly didn't come to work. If in a snow storm, they all said we aren't going to go plow. Then you're all screwed. Emergency services will not be getting to your homes if needed. You won't be able to get to work or the doctor or the store or any place you need to go. Everyday life would essentially come to a screeching halt. You would be stuck at home with no option to get out.
That's why most just move to the southwest where they don't have to deal with this BS 6 months out of the year
@SGT Stedanko it's really not bad. You get used to it after a bit. But either way, there is absolutely no reason for the public to treat the plow crews so bad
@@davidgrant8994 there's no "getting used" to mountains of snow and ice.
It shuts down the majority of outdoor activity unless you like bundling up in 15 layers, freezing your lungs, slipping on ice and crashing your car.
Weather in the upper midwest sucks plain and simple.
Where do you think all the "snow birds" in Arizona and Florida come from?
@SGT Stedanko I'm in the Northeast. We get our fair share of snow and ice. In fact it's snowing right now here.after awhile, you learn how to cope with it and there's still a lot you can do but people choose to stay inside and they don't like driving in it. When you've dealt with snow and ice for so long, you learn to just deal with it and that's where you get used to it.
@@davidgrant8994 dealing with it isn't getting used to it, and even if you're dealing with it, it still sucks.
Guess what happens when they get to go home. They have to clean the end of their driveway also. I know that it's not a fun thing.
