I love seeing the plow come when there is snow, and I understand you need to continue to lay down salt and sand. But do you have to have the plow down and scraping across the road when the road is already clear? It’s incredibly noisy when it is unnecessary. At least lift the thing up if there is no snow or anything on the road. And if you’re gonna turn around in peoples drive ways, turn off the salt machine for a second so you’re not spitting hard rocks of salt at the vehicles unnecessarily, please.

GOD DAMN IT… no salt on streets and people are crashing and dying!
GOD DAMN IT… salting the streets and causing all sorts of noise and fuss!
GOD DAMN IT… salting my driveway for free when city hall is inevitably going to run out of salt again this year!
GOD DAMN DA GOD DAMN!
So there will either be accidents caused by a lack of salt, or accidents caused by driver exhaustion from salt trucks keeping them awake all night…seems like a lose-lose situation!
yeah, buddy came up my street at 2 a.m., and there was no snow there, but he did throw salt down, so i guess everything is good.
Those poor civil servants just GOT TO add up the hours to get a larger pay cheque don’t they.
