The worst offenders are the big rigs. When you have a 10' piece of ice break off, look out.

That's why they have a fine for not clearing your roof.
interesting. Since snow is a rarity here in Charleston we are uneducated in those sorts of things. I get maybe a warning ticket and a clear it off order but a fine seems a little overboard. We had snow here in january, only fourth time i've ever seen snow and i couldn't resist driving around in my A on it. My A handled like it was on rails, nothing could stop it. even on main roads it was fine. the roads had ice since we didn't get salt on the roads until later in the day when i was already done driving. the A didn't care
