I just had a conversation with a relative who saw people being pulled over and the cops were pointing to the roof.

Yes on the roof is much more dangerous.

This works great as long as the snow is still soft. https://www.amazon.com/Snow-Joe-SJBL...5447511&sr=8-1

How could they know they were being pulled over if they can't see them?

It’s one thing to have some residual ice or snow, it’s another to not even bother. I always do a quick sweep with a brush on all surfaces, taking all of 3 minutes.

That snow blowing off the roof recovers a cleared window.

Then they expect the rear window defroster to melt it off.

I can get some suvs can't reach the top for a 5'1" woman, but that is what push brooms are for. They can help. But for a low to the ground car shouldn't be a problem to clear the roof.

I hate snow, period, can't WAIT to retire fully to a southern states city of our choosing.diesnt mean I will totally avoid it but it's rare occasions there.

Who said she had to do that? Isn’t that the nanny’s job?

A couple of years ago, I saw a Mercedes with only the windshield cleaned. Driving too fast approaching a red light, she had to stop kind of suddenly.

It was hilarious seeing the only car sitting at a now green light, with the windshield totally covered in a thick layer of snow, but a nice clean roof.
