UDOT reminds drivers: Don't try to pass snowplows! (for drivers' safety AND yours)
SALT LAKE CITY — With dangerous, snow-packed roads expected Tuesday night and beyond, Utah Department of Transportation crews worked overtime to prepare.“Make sure everything’s greased up, no hydraulic leaks that we’re not gonna spray hydraulic fluid all over, make sure we’re not making roads worse," said Wride.
“With heavier storms like this, we create what are called 'wind rows' where all the snow comes off the plows and by the end of the fourth plow, it can be a foot high depending on how much snow there is," he said.“When they try to pass us, they drive in front of us, and they end up spinning out because there’s no salt or sand on the road yet," said Wride.
