The amount that came down would cover up any disturbance made early on.All that said, we have no idea what the situation was with this vehicle. If it's, say, double parked on an "emergency essential" route, thus possibly seriously fucking with police or ambulances (I heard an ambo this morning in South Philly having a real hard time of it, and saw some busses stop several blocks of traffic, both situations because someone ditched their vehicles in the snow where they shouldn't have).Personally the PPA and city should have some sort of snow emergency system where they roam certain critical streets and intersections with tow trucks. Left your car at the no parking point of an intersection, destroying sightlines and creating a hazard for the wider turning radius some drivers need to make it around an icy corner, fuck you, you're towed.I don't drive much myself, and from that perspective I just don't get Philebrity's perspective on the PPA sometimes, since it too is steered by even less of a driver than I am.

All that said, we have no idea what the situation was with this vehicle. If it’s, say, double parked on an “emergency essential” route, thus possibly seriously fucking with police or ambulances (I heard an ambo this morning in South Philly having a real hard time of it, and saw some busses stop several blocks of traffic, both situations because someone ditched their vehicles in the snow where they shouldn’t have).

I don’t drive much myself, and from that perspective I just don’t get Philebrity’s perspective on the PPA sometimes, since it too is steered by even less of a driver than I am.
