Winter Preparedness

Snow Plow Safety

Motorists should be cautious when they encounter snowplows and limit driving during severe storms to avoid becoming stranded which can impede snow removal efforts.  To enhance public safety and assist plow operators, Wisconsin Department of Transportation offers the following winter driving tips:

  • Before traveling, call 511 or go online to Wisconsin 511 to check road conditions.
  • If there's ice and snow, take it slow.  Posted speed limits apply when travel conditions are ideal, and such speeds may be hazardous when roads are slick or visibility is reduced.  Most traffic crashes in winter are caused by drivers going too fast for conditions.
  • When travel conditions become especially hazardous, postpone or cancel your trip.
