A snow plow is a vehicle equipped with a broad blade at the front, designed to clear snow and ice from roads, driveways, and other surfaces. These machines are commonly used during winter storms to maintain safe travel conditions. Snow plows can be attached to trucks or be part of specialized vehicles, and they come in various sizes to handle different snow removal tasks. Snow plows operate by pushing snow to the side of the road, creating a clear path for vehicles. They are essential for public safety and are often operated by local government agencies or private contractors. Effective snow removal helps prevent accidents and ensures accessibility during harsh winter weather.
