When I (Texan)lived briefly in the northeast, I loved cleaning all the snow off my car. It was so novel and so satisfying to watch it come off in layers. Especially using the ice scraper on the frozen bottom layer...
A few years after moving back to Texas, we had an unseasonably and record amount of snowfall. I'd kept my window brush/squeegee/scraper, so I ran around my apartment parking lot, asking everyone if they'd like the snow off their car. Some people would see me gleefully cleaning a car, and they'd get excited, saying that they wanted to try it. Enough people wanted to try, that I just left them the scraper and told them my apartment number. A few hours later, there was a knock at my door, and my scraper was outside and 95% of the cars were completely clean.
I guess the moral of the story is to fly in some Texans when the snow gets that bad? I dunno, I just wanted to share.
Bye!
Sounds like a Tom Sawyer move.
Daggum, I sure love painting this fence! I HOPE NO ONE FINDS OUT HOW MUCH FUN I'M HAVING!!!
Yeah, I will admit that there is a strange satisfaction to brushing off snow.
Thick frost however? That's just torture.
Freezing rain. There's a special circle in hell for quarter inch thick freezing rain.
I recognise the irony, but the fires of hell don't burn as hot as my hatred of scraping freezing rain.
1/4 inch thick?!? One year we got it so bad my gfs Durango was fully frozen to the ground, wheel wells and everything, so thick I could break the ice connecting her running board to the ground. Thankfully it was the weekend and she didnt have to work and it kinda warmed up after that but it was a day before I could get her door open and another before it was safe to move from its spot. I tell ya, there were a lot more fun things I was planning that weekend other than spending the whole fucking time unfreezing an suv enough to move it.
Thatβs such a cute story. It reminds me of when I go to sweep the floor at work and curious kids ask to try using the broom. Hell yeah, little dude! Letβs turn this chore into something fun!
The number of clowns in Canada who drive around after clearing the minimum amount of snow necessary to drive their car and see out their windsheild. Beyond lazy
That's me, I'll carry around hundreds of lbs of snow on the roof and fenders of my Wrangler for weeks.
The person in the screenshot has cleared their entire windshield instead of a minimal viewport, that's above average already
"Entire windshield" is a very generous description. There's still quite a bit of snow that seems to mostly have been pushed around by the wiper blades.
Clear is clear bub. Looks like amateur hour though, no blue streaks from the 2 liters of winter washer fluid needed to melt the wipers free first.
If that's the case, then it's clearly not clear.
Swedish police started considering snow on the hood, windows, or roof as "unsecured cargo" and issuing fines of 1500kr (~β¬150). Repeat offences can cost you your licence. We'll see how much of a difference it makes. Can't say that I've noticed any particularly bad cases this winter.
Lived in Massachusetts for a decade, it ainβt just Canadians lemme tell ya
Anywhere there is snow there is people too negligent to clean it off properly.
Its not just canada, its anywhere that gets snow regularly. I've lived throughout the northeast US and there's these idiots everywhere.
The worst is when the back window is covered with fluffy snow and you can see that there's a rear wiper. Like all you have to do is press a single button but apparently that is too much.
That's clearly a Canadian spy car. They have a button that drops the snow to disrupt bad guys following them.
Lmao that wiper is frozen stuck to the windshield
That's why I said "fluffy snow". Fluffy snow does not freeze wipers to windows.

That rear suspension is holding up pretty good imo
Only because it's frozen solid!
That car is being held together by the ice.
It's all fun and games until you brake and the whole thing slides down and covers the front windshield and you can't see anything. Source: I was lazy about this once, but never again.
Nothing the wipers can't handle π₯΄
There's a rotting pumpkin on their doorstep and a brown Christmas tree in their living room.

That's a safety measure.
More weight over the rear axle improves traction.
And if someone hits you in the top rear your good to go.
idiotgloo.
No self respecting Canadian is going to drive around with a road hazard on their roof. Unless they're from Brampton.
That down force must be crazy!
Looks like they just pulled out of that snow bank behind the truck to take a picture because they were surprised it stayed in place.
