Town of Port Hawkesbury - Snowplow Safety Tips

Stay away from snowplows and snow blowers. Choose play areas away from roads, fences, water, and the end of driveways.
Wear bright colors outdoors. Bright colors help drivers see children better.
Take extra caution when crossing roads because it might be hard for drivers to see children playing if they have snowy or frosty windows.
Don't build snow forts or make tunnels – especially along the roadway and at the end of a driveway. Snow forts can collapse and trap or injure a child, be hit by an out of control car, or be destroyed by a snowplow clearing snow or cleaning up an area.
Don't play on roadside snow banks. The driver of a snowplow or other vehicle may not see a child.
If you can't see the snowplow driver, they can't see you. Stay far away from plows when they are working.
