Stinks on ice

There’s quite a chat in the Westchester forum about people who don’t clear the ice off their cars. This Sunday, as the wonderful snow-to-ice-to-snow-to-ice-to-rain-to-ice storm swept through, my car sat in the driveway (yes, we have no garage). And sat. And sat. Monday morning, I went out to clear the windshield, windows, headlights, roof and the hood of ice. (And yes, it was encased, and yes, I warmed up the car for more than 3 minutes, figuring the county’s idling law was flexible enough to allow idling to avoid breaking another law, not cleaning ice and snow off your vehicle.) I scraped, banged, scraped, hit, chipped, for quite some time. I got as much off from the roof (well, as much as I could see … I don’t have an SUV, but I don’t have much height, either.)
Of course, as I drove to work, I saw lots of “snow roadkill,” with flat sheets of icy snow strewn along the roadway.
So, Rocklanders, take a peek at that forum, or this LoHud query if you have any ice-removal tips.
