Winter driving and snowplowing can be dangerous, especially when cars are parked improperly or when snow is shoved onto the roadway.
The County of Prince Edward reminds drivers and people clearing snow to follow safety rules so everyone, including road workers, stays safe this winter.
- Snow and ice may not be shoved into or across any roadway. This is critical for public safety and preventing accidents.
