they plowed my side street well enough but the highway near me looks like a solid sheet of ice after being plowed, and like, my driveway is full of it

i do not have a snow shovel lol I don't really know what to do about it, I tried to clear some of it with a push broom (it's presently as light and fluffy as snow could possibly be) but I only got like 1/4 of the way before i got tired u_u

the problem with driveway snow is making sure your tires have traction and dont get stuck

I think it'll be fine because it's a fairly flat driveway and the tires on the car have decent tread, I'm just like, envisioning the snow melting and refreezing and then kinda crunching under the tires as the car sinks 5-6 inches into it and then the icy shit on the top layer scraping into it

I had to like just raw dog driving out of the driveway because I didn't think I had a shovel of any kind and the snow plow made like a big ridge of ice that I had to go over and let me just say that scraping sound going over it was not fun to hear. I'd be less afraid but it's not my car, it's my partner's, my car is all kinds of jacked up (and probably not driveable even if i fix the initial problems at this point since it's been sitting in my driveway for a year now, i'm sure the gasoline is sludge)
