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 ensure safe travel for cars and pedestrians. Snow plows can be found in various sizes, from small trucks to large, heavy-duty vehicles. Snow plows often work in conjunction with other winter maintenance equipment, such as salt spreaders and snow blowers. They are essential for maintaining public safety and accessibility during harsh weather conditions, helping to keep roads clear and reduce accidents caused by snow accumulation.
