#DYK that you MUST remove ice and snow from your car before you drive? If you don’t, it is a serious safety hazard and could result in fines. When it snows, plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time to clear your car. #PATurnpikeSafety #PAWinter

When encountering a plow truck you should NEVER crowd or pass a plow. Plow drivers have limited visibility, so motorists shouldn't pass or drive next to a plow truck. With snow covered road in front of the plow, you are safest traveling behind it. #PAWinter #PATurnpikeSafety

When encountering a plow truck remember – you should NEVER crowd or pass a plow. Plow drivers have limited visibility so motorists shouldn't try to pass a plow. The road in front of the plow is in worse condition so you are safest traveling behind. #PATurnpike #WinterPrepPA
