Massachusetts police are pleading with you to clear the snow off your car before hitting the road
Vehicles being driven covered in snow are being pulled over by law enforcement.
Before you hit the road after the most recent nor’easter, police in Massachusetts want you to do one thing: clear the snow off your car.State police shared multiple photos of cars Wednesday that were still coated with several inches of snow while being driven. “We are seeing a lot of vehicles on the road without clearing the snow off their vehicles,” police said on Facebook. “For your safety, and the safety of those around you, please clear the snow before you go.”
