Times-Advocate, 1979-12-12, Page 19Clearing snow from our highways can be a 24-hour, seven-days-a-week job for the men who drive the prov- ince's snow plows. They work in the worst kind of driving conditions so people and products can keep moving across the province, even in the worst winter weather. As soon as you see the snow plow's blue light, slow down. Be patient— don't try to pass; that's dangerous for you and them. Help them do their job. Then do.your part: be extra alert, adjust your speed and driving tactics to suit weather and road conditions.
