PennDOT reminds motorists to clear ice, snow off cars to avoid unnecessary dangers
Not only is clearing your car of snow and ice important for safe driving — it's the law. PennDOT is reminding drivers that before they attempt to go anywhere, their car must be completely cleared. This includes everything from the hood, roof, trunk and mirrors. PennDOT restores speed limits on most NWPA interstates Not doing so can be a danger to other people. Chunks of snow and ice can become projectiles and hit other motorists on the road. Drivers can be fined $50 per offense and that can go up to $1,500 if the snow on your vehicle causes a crash and results in serious bodily injury to someone else. RV & Outdoor Adventure Expo makes return to Bayfront Convention Center 'A lot of people say 'Well this will never happen to me. The odds are in my favor.' Really, it can happen to anybody,' said Saxon Daugherty, safety press officer for PennDOT District 1. 'There's people that utilize windshield blankets like a heated blanket for your windshield. You can also spray some solution on there that will prevent the ice from sticking to your windshield. Most commonly you're going to see just the ice scraper with the brush and that tends to be the quickest most effective way to do it. Just give yourself some extra time in the morning.' Daugherty said not to forget to wear a seatbelt and it's always good to have an emergency preparedness kit in your car as well. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
