Ah ha! So it is true, they don't scrape down to the bare road. Look at him leave an inch or so behind him! As a transplanted Vermonter, that's an oddity, Vermont plows scrape the road nearly bare - otherwise you're leaving a smooth sheet of snow behind you for people's wheels to turn into ice overnight. The next thing I notice is that he's not dropping enough sand/salt behind him.

they also dont seem to get the whole sand/salt thing - opting for the less effective brine solution.

Well, I guess it only snows once a lifetime here. Oh wait, once a year? More than that? You would think they have learned by now...
