My boss used to mount the plow pumps under the seat. I’m driving a ten wheeler down a busy state road one night and the solenoid on the pump shorted out under the seat. Cab filled up with smoke instantly, I had my head out the window trying to see so I wouldn’t hit a car, making a right turn while my foot was under that seat trying to push the shorted plow pump away from the seat frame so the truck didn’t go up in flames. 2 gauge battery wire going into the solenoid, the insulation was completely gone. All of this happened in a matter of seconds lol. Used to have all sorts of fun with his trucks.

Ah yes I go from researching my essay to becoming a Plow Truck driver

"Mr. Plow, that's my name. My name again is Mr. Plow."

Wow I can’t wait to utilize what I learned today on my sidewalk next weekend

When someone else's job training video shows up in recommended and you watch it without getting paid. . .

I didn’t know there called it a gore . I learned something

"So do you have any experience as a plow driver?" "Well I watched this KZread video that randomly came up so i'd say I'm pretty qualified"

I've never thought about it before, mainly because I'm from Georgia and snow is rare down here. But snowplow drivers are another under appreciated job I'm sure. So thanks you guys for keeping America moving during the winter.

I know a few plow drivers in my town that need to watch these videos.

Call Mr. Plow! That's my name! That name again, is Mr. Plow!

I’ve never driven a snowplow and i probably never will, yet KZread lets me watch this, and i watched it all 🤪

I've always wondered how they knew where the road was.

Wife: be safe tonight Me and the boys: 11:13

Who ever allowed these public for access - I have enjoyed my IDOT learning experience!

im glad this was in my recommended. me being an electrician in a state that snows maybe once every 4 years, ill never know when i may need this information!

I came because KZread recommended this to me. I stayed for the comments. I rarely see snow where I live. Learned a bunch about plowing though!

I like that this has been recommended after a local snowstorm

To summarise, clear the road, push the snow off the road, not back on to it. Don’t go crazy fast, don’t kill anyway with the plough, use your indicators and strap your lunch in with a seat belt.

Lol just what I wanted to learn today thanks youtube!

Wow, there is a lot to think about when plowing snow. Like everything past 10:43 I wouldn't have thought about

"You can use objects like road signs, mail boxes or guard rails to find the edge of the road." Has Iowa never heard of *snow poles* ?!?

thanks recommended.

Never plowed snow, or wanted to, but I guess I'll watch

In my area we have cattle guards if you are not fast you will come to a quick stop coffee sucks when spilled

Question? Does the plow wear out the ball joint’s faster with the pulling force applied to the steering

As a southerner I think I'll hang out behind the plow as long as possible.
