Laziness is the word. Many just choose to drive around with snow on their cars. I live in the north east and I have seen that happen. Usually drivers that do this present hazards to others. I have seen snow fall off of the hoods of cars and it can be costly to other drivers. If caught the penalty would likely be a fine. It should be discouraged and I think those that are lazy should take the time like everyone else to clean the snow off.

They're lazy morons? I'm guessing.

i agree with you. i have seen some cars with snow all over them lately, and it just made the cars look so unattractive, and i usually think all cars are attractive. the truth is that cleaning snow off a car is a job that you have to set aside time for, and most people are too lazy, some think that the rain will take care of it, or they just don't care that snow is on their car.

In my part of the world even the Police don't all clear their windows. Sheer stupidity can be the only reason for this practise..

In NJ it is illegal. Of course, I've never seen anyone stopped for it. The snow turns to ice and then comes flying off the car and is extremely dangerous. They don't clean it off because they don't give a sheet about anyone else.

Because they are lazy. When i lived in ny, i remember it being illegal, and if a chunk of snow flew off your car and hit and damaged someone else's you would be responsible.

Because I'm lazy? I don't do the peep whole thing though. less than a half inch I just let the wind and whippers take care of the snow. Significant amounts I remove before I drive. I like to be able to see.
