Here's a peek at what our snowplow drivers see during a storm. (video taken from passenger seat) This I-86 in Chautauqua County yesterday. Plow trucks have many blind spots and don't maneuver easily. The best place to drive is several car lengths behind them where the road is freshly cleared and salted. | New York State Department of Transportation

Our plows doing some echelon plowing on Interstate 81 north in Jefferson County this morning. Echelon plowing is the safest and most efficient way to clear snow from multi-lane highways. Please be patient, drive with caution and never try to pass the plows. | New York State Department of Transportation

🚨 Cool Echelon Plowing Alert! 🚨 A view from the trailing plow as our Hudson Valley ❄️snow & 🧊ice crew echelon plows on Rt 9W. When possible, this is the most efficient way we clear multiple lanes at once and make our highways safe throughout winter. Please remember to stay well behind plows and allow us the space to safely get the job done. #DontCrowdThePlow | New York State Department of Transportation

We’ll admit it… we’re plowing and there’s no snow on the ground in this video. 😅 But before you say, “Why’s NYSDOT out plowing with no snow?” - here’s the truth: this is training and the BLADE IS UP! Each year, our new operators hit the roads before the snow flies to get hands-on experience with the plow, wing and that extra-wide setup. So, while it might look like we’re “plowing sunshine,” we’re actually preparing to keep you safe when it really counts. 🌨️💪 #WinterReady #PlowTraining | New Y

Our tow plows will be out clearing snow in areas still being hit hard by blizzard conditions. If you haven't seen one, this is what a tow plow looks like in action. Don't be surprised when it swings out - it's supposed to do that! More video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJJ7QigL-_0 | New York State Department of Transportation

Have you ever seen a tow plow? It's a standard plow truck with an extra plow towed behind it. The operator can swing the extra plow out to the side to clear snow from two lanes at once. Here's a peek inside the special training our operators receive. More info at: https://on.ny.gov/39pm6Wr | New York State Department of Transportation

The plows are out! ❄️ That’s NYSDOT operator Brandon Bauer behind the wheel of this plow on State Route 298 near Bridgeport, doing what needs to be done as snow continues to fall. Crews will be working around the clock to keep roads passable during this storm for necessary travel. Do us a favor 👉Stay home, but if you must travel, slow down, stay alert, and give plows the space they need. Stay safe out there, New York. | New York State Department of Transportation

Ever seen a tow plow in action? This video shows one of NYSDOT’s tow plows clearing State Route 365 in Rome, NY, yesterday. Tow plows allow crews to clear multiple lanes at once, helping crews remove snow more efficiently during winter storms. With 52 active tow plows statewide, they are used strategically where roadway design and conditions allow. NYSDOT Crews across NY work around the clock to keep roads as safe as possible during winter weather. #DontCrowdThePlow | New York State Department o

🚛❄️ A big shoutout to our dedicated plow crews who worked around the clock this weekend keeping roads safe! Here’s a look at one of our tow plows in action on I-88 in Broome County. Remember, even a thin layer of snow can make roads slippery—so take it slow, be patient, and always give our plows plenty of room to work! | New York State Department of Transportation

This is how a tow plow works. You may be surprised the first time you see these on the roads this winter. The tow plow can be hydraulically adjusted to swing out to the right. Our skilled operators are highly-trained and use the utmost caution when plowing New York's highways. | New York State Department of Transportation

We get it. This epic shot looks like we’re blocking every lane to ruin your day… but we’re not! What you’re seeing here is echelon plowing, and it’s the safest and most efficient way to clear snow from multi-lane highways during winter weather. By plowing side by side, crews can push snow off the roadway in one coordinated move instead of leaving it scattered across lanes. This was captured today on I-87 in Albany as crews worked through the storm. Please stay back, be patient, and never try to
