REEL ADDICTION Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Thats a money shot rite there now DOT waits until the snow is on the ground before calling out the plows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFCDrum Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Yea when Christie got caught in that bullshit with the weather we were out on standby for many hours doing nothing. Last winter towards the end they waited until it was too late and the roads were FUBR! Then they tell you to get it clean past the curbs and drains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxfymn Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 It was a bit of a culture shock when I experienced my first significant snow after I moved to VA from MA. In MA everything that could swing a blade was used; down here only dumps, a few farm tractors, and the occasional grader using the regular mold board. They never used mixers, trash trucks, or anything else and still don't. That is why VA is a religious state when it snows; "God put it there and he'll take it away." 1 Quote Money, sex, and fire; everybody thinks everyone else is getting more than they are!
