IF they left their car in the middle of the road. Sure why not.
I see stupid pictures of snow stores and damn car is in the middle of the road!
it's not hard
I worked as a security guard through much of college, and I was expected to be at work NO-MATTER-WHAT. Sick? Work. Tornado? Work. Snow? Work. Nuclear War? I'd better be there.
Some jobs just don't accept excuses.
There are some exceptions, but for the general public, there is no reason to be out on the road unless you are on your way home from work when a storm hits. No one should be on the road at the height of a storm except in dire emergencies. New Yorkers tell of hours stranded on snowy roads on the Long Island Expressway. This is the kind of stuff I am talking about: When cars like this are abandoned willy nilly, it takes clean-up crews longer to get the road open and passable unlike if people stayed home and off the roads so they wouldn't get stranded somewhere like this.I worked as a security guard through much of college, and I was expected to be at work NO-MATTER-WHAT.

When the Groundhog Day blizzard hit here in Chicago, which compelled many to abandon their cars on Lake Shord Drive, the city just towed the vehicles to nearby lots where people were able to claim them once the snow had been pushed aside. Â Whether or not they were charged for the tow escapes my memory bank.
They should be charged for the tow anda fine should be levied on them. Something to make up for the man hours us cops had to expend to deal with these idiots.
You were warned to stay at home by ALL levels of government. There is no reason you should have been driving during the blizzard. And if by some chance you had a valid reason, like you were a first responder going to work, or you had to go to the hospital, the fine should be waived. But you should have to pay for the tow.
